Boxer Amir Khan is believed to be having an affair with model despite claiming him and wife Faryal have started to patch things up

BOXER Amir Khan is said to be having an affair with a model despite claiming he wants to patch things up with his wife.

Khan had been involved in a public spat with wife Faryal Makhdoom and they split in August.

Yesterday he said he was ashamed of their feud and just wanted to be a family man.

But sources close to Khan say he started spending time with Pakistani model Alyzeh Gabol, 23, soon after he and Faryal split.

And one source said: “Amir has not ended things with Alyzeh. Over the past four months he has been to Pakistan to see her on at least four occasions, and they have also met up at least once in Dubai.

“They were together just last week. Amir might say he is committed to the reunion with Faryal, but it’s all about the money for him.

“Before they reconciled, Faryal had grown so desperate for him not to divorce her that she agreed to ‘give him space’ when he isn’t at home with her.”

Khan had earlier said: “Me and Alyzeh met weeks after me and Faryal decided to leave each other. People are saying the reason I left Faryal was for her, but it’s not true. I respect Alyzeh and I think it’s best to keep her out of this drama.”

Khan has been accused of several flings since he met New York model Faryal in 2011.

They include romps with a solicitor and a promotions girl in a hot tub in Marbella, while Playboy model Carla Howe also claimed they had sex.

While Faryal was pregnant with their daughter in 2014, Khan was accused of sending lewd texts to a shopworker and begging her for a threesome.

Amir and wife Faryal had been involved in a very public spat earlier this year
