£100,000 Range Rover sprayed with ‘cheat’ and ‘heart breaker’ belongs to hack storm ex-England footie ace Steven Caulker
The pricey motor was pictured on a driveway in posh Richmond, London with the word "cheat"
FOOTBALLER Steven Caulker’s £100,000 Range Rover has been daubed with graffiti hours after he was accused of two-timing his girlfriend.
The QPR star returned to the car with girlfriend Lauren Merrick yesterday to find it sprayed with the words “cheater”, heart breaker” and “rot in hell”.
It had been parked outside Lauren’s house in Richmond, South West London.
However Caulker has claimed the car has nothing to do with him.
He told : "I don't understand where this has come from, the car has nothing to do with me, I don't know who did it.
"I haven't had a phone for the last two days, I've just got this pay as you go, I've got no idea who did it. Nothing has been sprayed on my car, it must have been photoshopped because my car is fine."
There is no suggestion the footballer has cheated on his partner, nor is it clear at this stage whether he has been the victim of an unpleasant prank.
However his girlfriend, Lauren Merrick told the Mail it was a “very public incident” and that she was “very angry with him” but refused to elaborate further.
Steven Caulker's agent told the Sun Online: "I wouldn't comment on such matters".
The Range Rover appears to be linked to Revere London, a company at the centre of a similar graffiti stunt last year.
Yesterday, a post showing a photo of a pig and words “I’m a dirty cheat and I’ve broken a poor girls heart” appeared on Caulker’s Instagram account.
The message was shared with the 25-year-old’s 69,000 followers attracting a string of likes and comments.
Several other screenshots, said to show x-rated Facebook messages and Facetime videos which had been posted on his Instagram account then deleted, circulated on Twitter yesterday.
It has since been claimed the pictures and video are linked to British-born, US-based fitness model Harriet Kauffman. But there is no suggestion she was involved in posting them.

This comes almost a year after a Range Rover modified by the same company responsible for Caulker's was sprayed with the words, “cheater – it’s over” and “I hope she was worth it” during a publicity stunt outside Harrods in Knightsbridge, west London.
It was later revealed to be a publicity stunt for the Revere Range Rover Vogue.
Last night a spokesman from Revere denied they had anything to do with the graffiti on Caulker’s car.
He said: “It’s a big coincidence. I do not want to start setting a precedent for people doing this. It was nothing to do with us.”
