Jeremy McConnell caught waving suspicious packet of white powder at camera on ‘drunk’ night out with mates
The Irish model has a long history of drug abuse but was thought to be clean following a stint in rehab earlier this year
JEREMY McConnell has been filmed waving a bag of white powder during a night out with pals.
Earlier this month the Irish reality star told a court he was "clean" of cocaine, before walking free from jail after being found guilty of assaulting Stephanie Davis.
In the footage, Jeremy walks towards the camera and appears to be waving a bag of an unknown white substance.
He grins at the camera and walks towards the person filming the scene.
The video, which was posted on Snapchat, had the caption: "Doesn't give a f**k".
Jeremy then says something to his pal who replies: "You nutter!"
The 27-year-old then laughs and throws his head back while still waving the small bag around.
It is not the first time footage of Jeremy using drugs has circulated online - back in January 2016, while he was in the CBB hose, a shocking clip emerged that showed Jez snorting a mysterious white powder from an unknown girl's genitals.
Jeremy has made no secret of his drug issues in the past – even once saying he is surprised to still be alive following years of alcohol and drug abuse.
In April of this year he entered rehab following a relapse after the sudden death of his father - and claims to have remained clean from the Class A drug since.
He told us at the time: "The stuff I've seen, the stuff I've done... I'm surprised I'm not dead with the way I've partied.”
And vowing to get back on the straight and narrow, he said: "Alcohol just doesn't agree with me, I don't need it. My personality and charisma without it are good.
"All I want to do is be a family man and provide for my family, and leave that party boy behind.
"I want to be a father figure, and be a dad. With Caben, my mother, my brother, my sister, my dad, they're all living through him. "That's my bloodline. That's Caben. I grew up in a broken home, I don't want that for my son."
However it wasn’t long until Jeremy started drinking again and his relationship with Stephanie Davis, the mother of his child, collapsed once again.
Things came to a head last month when the pair became embroiled in a bitter and violent row which led to them both battered and bruised.
Not long after the pair both appeared in court over an incident back in March which saw Jeremy attack Steph in a cocaine-fuelled rampage.
Speaking in court, Jeremy admitted he had shared a bag of coke with friends, saying he had also drunk three double vodkas at the pub before he threw her around like a “rag doll” and called her a “s**g” in a violent argument over a sex toy.
Jeremy was found guilty of the attack but walked free from jail - instead he was handed a 20 weeks in prison, suspended for 12 months and he will also have to attend a Building Better Relationships course, and carry out 200 hours community service.
Following the verdict Jeremy's lawyer Mr Morris stated that he was clean from Class A drug cocaine and he intended to maintain that.
He said: "Jeremy was admitted to the clinic on April 3 this year for treatment for chemical dependency, and completed his treatment on April 23."
