French footballer, Dimitri Payet has denied ‘physical and psychological violence’ towards his ‘mistress,’ insisting that their relationship was consensual’ after she accused him of ‘forcing her to film bizarre s£x acts’ and ‘drink her own urine’
The former West Ham star, currently playing for Vasco da Gama in Rio de Janeiro, was reportedly heard at the Women’s Assistance Police Station, where he admitted to having a relationship with lawyer Larissa Natalya Ferrari but insisted every act during their union was consensual.
It comes after the former West Ham star was accused of forcing Ferrari, 28, whom he began a seven-month affair with after ‘becoming lonely’ in Brazil to drink her own urine and lick the floor, as well as pushing and stepping on her.
The Frenchman, who left his wife of almost 20 years Ludivine, and their four children back in his homeland, is yet to comment on the allegations publicly, but Brazilian outlet G1, claim to have obtained a document with further details of the case.
The outlet reports that the lawyer claims to suffer from Borderline personality disorder and believes the 38-year-old Payet took advantage of her condition.
‘Dimitri knew about my passion and psychological problems, using this against me,’ she is reported to have said by G1. ‘Dimitri convinced me to put my head in the trash, in the toilet, made me drink my own urine, and other bizarre sexual acts.
It’s also alleged that Payet admitted to the acts but maintained that they were consensual and proposed by Ferrari. It mentions an encounter when Ferrari ‘requested slaps during s£xual intercourse’ and as a result, developed marks on her body.
The French international also reportedly claimed that the two used wooden chairs during s£xual intercourse, and that, due to Ferrari’s light skin, any pressure would lead to marks.
Earlier this month, Ferrari told AFP: ‘I want justice because he abused my psychological vulnerability to gain sexual advantage. He demanded proof of love from me, which consisted of humiliation.
‘I recorded videos in which I drank my urine, drank water from the toilet bowl, and licked the floor. I’m a lawyer, I would never have made such serious complaints lightly.’
The recent report out of Brazil alleges that Payet refused Ferrari’s desire to continue this relationship in France, on the condition that he pay her expenses, as his time in the country approached its end.
Payet’s lawyer Sheila Lustoza told G1: ‘It is regrettable that confidential records were leaked, but the case reveals with evidence something that is very clear: a woman exercising her freedom and will, as it should be, contrary to what has been publicly narrated up until now. The defense is confident that the truth that is proven by documents will demonstrate these facts.’
In March, Larissa revealed that they had had a seven-month affair.
She wrote in a lengthy statement: ‘One thing I want to make clear is that it was never about money. There was no need for it.
‘There’s not much I can say because there’s no explanation or anything to justify it.
‘But one thing I want to make extremely clear is that it was never for money, not before, not now. In fact, the last time I went to Rio, I went by bus.’
Larissa, who is a mother of two, also claimed that she only got physically involved with the midfielder following her divorce from her ex-husband.
