Paloma Faith Survives Near-Fatal Attack by Ex in Shocking Car Chase
Paloma Faith Reveals Shocking Story of Near-Death Experience with Ex
In a jaw-dropping revelation, singer Paloma Faith has opened up about a harrowing experience she had in her younger years, where she was left for dead by an ex-partner. The 43-year-old star shared the terrifying tale on her podcast, Mad Sad Bad, where she was joined by guest Ruby Wax.
According to Paloma, the ex-partner's violent attack involved a high-speed car chase, with him trying to run her off the road. He even smashed into someone else's house before turning his attention back to Paloma and pulling her out of her car through a shattered window. The singer was left with a black eye and a "smashed up" face.
Paloma obtained an injunction against her ex following the attack, but in a bizarre twist of fate, she ran into him seven years later while on her way to work at an underwear shop. Her new job required her to wear a pink uniform, which she described as feeling "quite confident." When her ex approached her, asking for a drink after work, Paloma agreed, thinking it would be a chance to clear the air.
However, things took an interesting turn when Paloma let her ex speak first, but his stories came across as dull. In a bold move, she told him, "I find you quite boring," and walked out on him. This moment was a turning point for Paloma, who said it made her feel like she had "conquered" something, helping her heal from the ordeal.
Paloma's New Beau: A 'Posh' Romance
In other news, Paloma has sparked controversy by calling Spencer Matthews "posh," which led to an exchange with fellow guest Vogue Williams on her podcast. Vogue revealed that Spencer told her Paloma had been criticizing him for being posh. However, Paloma retorted that she now has a new boyfriend who fits the bill of being posh.
The singer, known for her working-class roots in Hackney, London, joked about her new relationship, saying it's like a "social experiment." She went on to apologize to listeners for dating someone considered posh. Vogue, who is from Portmarnock, Dublin, and has been married to Spencer for seven years, explained that she was initially hesitant but eventually fell for his charms.
Vogue described Spencer as great fun and convincing her that being with him was better than being single. The couple is celebrating their seventh anniversary, and Paloma has since gone public with her new man, Stevie Thomas, the director of a music venue in Birmingham. They were spotted together at Sony's Brit Awards afterparty in March.
