Westerman was filmed performing a sex act on a pal's missus down a darkened alleyway.

"I now have to think about my children and begin rebuilding our future together. It's daunting, but he's got no one to blame but himself."

The couple have three kids together, including a 15-year-old.
Devastated Lauren was sent the appalling video before it was posted online and immediately confronted her husband.
It later went viral on Twitter.
Lauren wrote: "Can I make this VERY clear that this is NOT me!!!!!!"
She added: "And we have three children, one of whom is almost 15, and she doesn’t need to see things like this all over social media!"
In a statement issued through the club the disgraced player said: "Firstly, I would like to take this opportunity to wholeheartedly apologise to my family and friends for my actions.
"I'd also like to apologise to the supporters, sponsors, staff, and directors of Castleford Tigers as well as my teammates.
