Former australian spinner Shane Warne’s misfired SMS, which spelt doom for his efforts to woo back estranged wife Simone Callahan, was reportedly meant for Imran Khan’s ex-wife Jemima.
Warne’s ex-wife Simone had claimed to have caught the cricketer red-handed when he mistakenly sent her the text message meant for his lover.
The Woman Day magazine claimed the message was meant for Jemima. Warne, however, rubbished the report and insisted that he and Jemima were “just friends”. “There’s absolutely no truth in that one whatsoever,” Warne was quoted as saying by an Australian Associated Press (AAP) report during his visit to the MCG for a beer promotion.
“We’re good friends, friends with the family and that’s it. Hopefully that all clears it up with you guys,” he said.
The flamboyant cricketer also said that he was not game for a mud-slinging duel with ex-wife Simone, who accused him of cheating on her once again. “I am not going to start a tennis match with Simone, backwards and forwards. My statement that I released is 100 per cent truthful and accurate and I stand by that.
“Simone knows the truth, that is the end of that one,” he added.
Warne and Simone parted ways in 2005 but attempted a patch-up early this year to see if things work.
