JENNIFER Arcuri claimed Boris Johnson told her he has five children – and hung up the phone the last time she reached out to him.
The US businesswoman told GMB Mr Johnson had left her to deal with a “massive scandal” after it was alleged they had a four-year affair.
While refusing to confirm if they had an affair herself, she said the pair had a relationship "for a long time" where they could talk about anything.
Speaking to Good Morning Britain, she said: "No matter how busy he was, he always made time to answer the phone. For the last almost ten years I have dealt directly with him."
Jennifer said her relationship with the PM meant she even had a "vague" idea of how many children Boris has – something he has refused to confirm himself.
She said: "I asked him once – I asked if he has as many kids as Ken Livingstone and he said no.
"He had the four, and one with Helen."
Former London Mayor Ken Livingstone is believed to have five children. Boris Johnson has repeatedly refused to speak about his family life.
But despite their previous frank and open relationship, Jennifer claimed the PM was now ignoring her calls.
Piers Morgan probed Jennifer about what happened the last time she called him – which she revealed was last Sunday.
She said: "He said 'yes hello' and hung up when I said why did you block me?
"I thought what a slap in the face."
'IN OTHER WORDS, F OFF'
She later explained: "The first time I called him, he answered then the phone was taken.
"The phone was taken by a man who was pretending to speak in a Chinese accent – what you want, who you talking to.
"In other words f off."
She said she had presumed he was busy, then calling him again and having him hang up.
And she claimed all she wanted was to speak to him about what happened, adding: “He knows to call me, it’s the right thing to do.”
She previously claimed Mr Johnson had visited her flat, which had a dancing pole, in East London for “technology lessons”.
In a previous ITV interview Ms Arcuri said she felt cast aside by the PM like a “one-night stand” and felt “terribly heartbroken”.
It comes after she reportedly received a total of £126,000 in public money and went on three foreign trade missions led by Mr Johnson when he was London Mayor.
The phone was taken by a man who was pretending to speak in a Chinese accent – what you want, who you talking to. In other words f off.
A City Hall probe was halted after a request by the Independent Office for Police Conduct while a government review was carried out into a £100,000 cyber skills grant from Whitehall.
The probe found the money was “appropriate”.
But after the GMB interview, the mother was slammed by Lorraine Kelly, who accused her of dodging questions in the interview.
As Piers and co-host Susanna Reid panned to speak to Lorraine, the Scot presenter said: “That was crazy wasn’t it, why come on if you’re going to answer any questions.
“What’s the point of that?
She then said directly to Ms Arcuri: “What is the point of you coming on the TV to clear the air, if you don’t say anything?”
The American claimed she answered a “few things”.
But Lorraine hit back: “You didn’t answer any of the questions put to you – I just don’t see the point you coming on to be honest.”
