‘He couldn’t keep his hands off me’: Jennifer Arcuri says she and Boris Johnson had ‘four-year affair’ where she sent him ‘arty’ topless pictures – but insists they had an ‘intellectual attraction’
- Jennifer Arcuri, 35, claimed she and Boris Johnson had affair from 2012 to 2016
- She said it started when he was still married to his now ex-wife Marina Wheeler
- She claims first had sex just before he attended opening of London Paralympics
Jennifer Arcuri has claimed that she and Boris Johnson had four-year affair where she sent him ‘arty’ topless pictures – but insists they had an ‘intellectual attraction’.
The 35-year-old said that she ‘fell in love’ with the now Prime Minister, 56, during their alleged relationship which she claimed lasted from 2012 to 2016.
She stated that she and Mr Johnson, who was Mayor of London at the time, began the affair during his second term in office when he was married to now ex-wife, high-flying barrister Marina Wheeler – with whom he shares two sons and two daughters.
Ms Arcuri claims the pair first had sex in her flat on Shoreditch High Street, where she had pole dancer’s apparatus installed, just hours before he attended the opening of the 2012 London Paralympics.
The technology entrepreneur, originally from America, told the Sunday Mirror that during their first tryst he ‘couldn’t keep his hands off’ her and, at the height of the romance, they were meeting once a week.
But she said that there was a mutual ‘physical and intellectual attraction’ between them.

Ms Arcuri told the publication: ‘We were in an intimate relationship for four years. I loved him, and with good cause. But the man I thought I knew doesn’t exist any more.’
She had been a business student when she first met Mr Johnson in 2011 before volunteering to campaign for him in his London Mayor re-election bid the following year.
The entrepreneur said that there had been an ‘obvious spark’ and that the pair had exchanged numbers before he wined and dined her in restaurants across the capital.
She said after the pair first had sex Mr Johnson had not wanted to leave but that she had told him: ‘You’re supposed to be on stage and on TV in a few hours.

‘Now, I’m pushing you out the door with all of your mayoral bric a brac, the lanyard with the big badge, and the lapel pins.’
Just hours after the alleged romp Mr Johnson was on stage alongside Princess Anne, Prince William and Kate Middleton.
She also claimed she sent an ‘arty’ picture of herself topless with the snapshots being from professional shoots.
But Ms Arcuri said the pair’s alleged affair finished in 2016 and said: ‘I wasn’t going to be a back-up plan, or the last 747,000th on his list to deal with.’

Ms Arcuri’s links with Mr Johnson (together in 2013) came under public scrutiny last year over allegations she received ‘preferential treatment’ for her business ventures during his eight-year stint as Mayor
Later that same year she had struck up a new romance with Matthew Hickey and was pregnant.
She added: ‘I wasn’t going to be a back-up plan, or the last 747,000th on his list to deal with.’
Ms Arcuri’s links with Mr Johnson came under public scrutiny last year over allegations she received ‘preferential treatment’ for her business ventures during his eight-year stint as Mayor.
Investigations were launched by City Hall and the police watchdog over the PM’s links with the tech entrepreneur – who was handed £126,000 of public grants and went on overseas trade missions with Mr Johnson to Indonesia and Israel.
The Independent Office for Police Conduct said there was no evidence he’d committed the criminal offence of misconduct in public office but he may have breached the ‘Nolan Principles’.
Ms Arcuri maintains that she was invited on trade trips in her own right as a member of the London tech-scene.
But she slammed Mr Johnson as a ‘cowardly, wet noodle’ for not standing by her during the fallout.
A spokesman for No 10 told MailOnline that it had ‘nothing further to add’ in relation to Ms Arcuri’s claims.
The Prime Minister has previously never confirmed or denied that the pair were involved in an affair.
