Model Amii Grove splits from fromer Birmingham City star Jermaine Pennant

Apr 19 2009 by Anuji Varma, Sunday Mercury

HEARTBROKEN model Amii Grove has revealed she’s had enough of men after former Liverpool and Birmingham City soccer badboy Jermaine Pennant cheated on her – and is now turning her attentions to WOMEN instead.

The Birmingham WAG split from the former Blues player after discovering he had done the dirty on her with Hollyoaks actress Jennifer Metcalfe.

Now stunning Amii says she is happy being single and plans to concentrate on a new modelling agency, Pin-Up Dolls, which she is launching with fellow glamour girl Danni Wells.

‘‘I’m off men for the time being after I found out Jermaine cheated on me,’’ Amii, 23, told the Sunday Mercury.

“We’d decided to have a break from each other on New Years’ Eve – but I soon found out from a pal that he was seeing Jennifer behind my back for a while.

“It’ll only be a matter of time before he does the same to her. I don’t hate her though. Jermaine is a womaniser and he always will be.

‘‘I was oblivious to what was going on.”

The couple shared the then Liverpool FC player’s mansion in Cheshire and became engaged last year at the graveside of Amii’s brother Lee Marley, 25, who had tragically died in a quad bike crash.

But she claims their romance was doomed because of Jermaine’s cheating.

“I was the first girl he ever lived with and got engaged to – and he cheated on me twice,” she explained.

“I haven’t spoken to Jermaine since we split and I’d never get back together with him again.

‘‘I don’t know what I saw in him in the first place. I must have been drunk the whole time I was going out with him.

‘‘I’m much happier now, although I’m not seeing anyone else.

“I’m concentrating on making Pin-Up Dolls work. All I’m thinking is business, business, business at the moment.”

The agency was the brainchild of Coventry-born Danni, 22, who then asked Amii to become her business partner.

It will launch in three weeks’ when the girls will begin a search for the region’s next top model – slim or curvy.

“I’d wanted to set up an agency for a while and thought Amii would be the perfect partner,” Danni said.

“There’s so much talent in the Midlands and the girls are beautiful.
