The former East 17 frontman, 46, said his ex had put his life in danger by introducing him to members of a peadophile gang at a club.

He captioned the bizarre video on : "Because of you I am a dead man walking!"

Danniella, 47, revealed fans notified her of the shocking video and hit back in a rage-fuelled rant.

The upset star said she had been abused as a child and Brian's claims could have caused her to relapse on drugs.

Addressing fans in her own video on , Danniella said: "I'm fuming with him. What a d**k head.

"I'm just going to address Brian Harvey slandering the s**t out of me. Saying I'm a murderer, stuff like that. Saying I set him up with a paedophile ring. Calling me a groomer. He's mad ...

"He's having a bipolar meltdown. And I feel for him I do. And I have championed Brian. He's on YouTube live now. I won't calm down. Sorry the geezer is f**king crazy.

"The geezer's live on YouTube moaning, calling me a paedophile. I'm furious with him because he's slandering my name. I was the one who was abused as a child, Brian wasn't. 

"You're on this rampage about paedophile rings when you weren't even abused by one. MI5 are not on your case. I don't know how you think that. 

"You are a paranoid coke freak which I used to be, where you think everyone at your front door is MI5 and they're gonna come through your door. They aint mate.

"It's people like you that put me back into relapses. But you're not going to do that. He thinks I've got convictions. He's on there saying I brought MI5 to his house and stuff like that. What am I, Ms Money Penny?

"You're fully live on your YouTube crying, sobbing, slandering me saying I am involved in paedophile rings. Mate I was abused all my life in this industry, you wasn't Brian. You're one of the lucky ones son, so why you're sitting locked in your f**king house with bars on your windows I don't know."

She went on: "I'm just a woman who is trying to do the right thing and putting her past behind her and addiction behind her.

"People haven't got a clue what I've been through with that boy. He's on there calling me a paedophile when I've had paedophiles abusing me from when I was nine years old."

Danniella’s first major public relationship came in the form of the East 17 frontman.

The pair remained together from 1991-1995, and after their split, she had her son Kai with new beau, Robert Fernandez.

She has been married twice – a nine-month union to Ben Morgan during 1998 – 1999, and a fourteen year marriage to millionaire businessman Kevin Jenkins, which ended in 2014.

In June 2019 Danniella revealed she was training to become a therapist after battling cocaine addiction – which started in her 20s and has ravaged her face.

Brian, who has had mental health problems, now lives on benefits after selling 22 million records in East 17.

He was sacked from the band in 1997 over comments appearing to condone the use of ecstasy following the death of 18-year-old Leah Betts.
