"I couldn't call him Daddy because it didn't feel right," she says. "He wasn't around enough. I was desperate to get to know him. I remember when I was about eight, my brother, Michael, and I were staying with him in Southsea, in a hotel. After dinner one evening, a young lady arrived so he gave my brother and me some money, went off with this 17-year-old and left us for a couple of nights. We used to take ourselves off to the fair and went mad with room service."
