Former page three girl Samantha Fox repeated claims that she was sexually assaulted by late singer David Cassidy after a photoshoot for his single Romance.
THe now 54-year-old detailed the alleged bathroom attack on Channel 4 documentary Page 3: The Naked Truth, which aired on Thursday night.
Samantha first made the claims about the US singer back in 2017 and again recalled how he attempted to push himself onto her in the toilets of a restaurant after being aroused during one of his video shoots when she was aged 19.

She told the show: ‘He was one of my biggest idols when I was seven or eight,’ Samantha began. ‘I was a big fan.
‘We did the shoot, he was quite excited. I don’t really need to say more than that. He was sweating all over me. ‘I was thinking, “Wow, this was the guy who I looked up to”.’
Following the shoot, Cassidy is said to have invited Fox and her dad to join him for dinner at former celeb haunt The White Elephant in Chelsea.

She once said she agreed to go along to the meal as she did not want her father to suspect anything amiss had taken place.
On Thursday night’s show, she added: ‘Then we went for dinner with my dad and the record company.
‘I went to the loo and he came into the loos straight after me and pinned me up against the wall and tried to stick his tongue in my mouth and push himself against me.
‘I got away. I went straight back to my table with my dad. Didn’t tell my dad. I was very fearful to tell my dad because he wouldn’t have liked it very much. No way.’
Explaining: Samantha said she had agreed to go to dinner with David after noticing he was aroused during the show, because she didn’t want her dad to think anything was amiss

David, who appeared in Seventies TV show The Partridge Family, passed away in 2017 when he was aged 67 and had been said to have been in need of a liver transplant.
Fox previously said Cassidy grabbed her breast in the same attack after joining her and her father for dinner out and tried to put his hand up her skirt.
But revealing in her autobiography, released three years ago, Fox said she responded by kneeing him in the crotch.
She said: ‘I got away. I went straight back to my table with my dad. Didn’t tell my dad. I was very fearful to tell my dad because he wouldn’t have liked it very much. No way’ (pictured in 1984)
Describing him as a ‘first class creep’, Fox previously told the Daily Star: ‘It shocked me. I was a huge fan and loved The Partridge Family.
‘I had a big poster of David Cassidy on my wall and I used to kiss him every night before going to bed.
‘When he grabbed me and pushed his tongue down my throat, I just kneed him in the b*****ks and would still do that today.’
The assault took place in May 1985 after Fox was asked to appear in the video for his single Romance.
But when she was told to strip from the waist up for the video, Fox said she was left disgusted after realising he had an erection during filming.
In her book she said: ‘Whenever he pressed himself against me, I could clearly feel his d***.
‘David seemed to be deliberately drawing out the photoshoot, which took an eternity, and he had an erection the entire time – something he did absolutely nothing to hide.’
