Jamie OHara is blaming an incorrect financial assessment for claims he owes Danielle Lloyd a whopping £27,457.

The father-of-three strenuously denied accusations that hes facing legal action over missed child support payments for their three children, Archie, eight, Harry, seven, and five-year-old George.

Professional footballer Jamie, who previously claimed to pay Danielle £15,000-a-month, broke his silence in a lengthy Instagram statement on Monday to insist he is cooperating.

Jamie simultaneously suggested that he had given Danielle £660,000 for his three children just last September.

He wrote: I feel necessary and compelled to respond to another negative untrue story that has been sold to tarnish my reputation once again by certain individuals.

As people are aware I was locked into a very bitter, public divorce and I have always tried to maintain a level of dignity for my children, saying this, I feel very strongly about the above story and this goes against my values and morals as a father.

Unfortunately due to todays story in the sun, I feel necessary and compelled to respond to another negative untrue story that has been sold to tarnish my reputation once again by certain individuals. As people are aware I was locked into a very bitter, public divorce and I have always tried to maintain a level of dignity for my children, saying this, I feel very strongly about the above story and this goes against my values and morals as a father, I would like to clarify I pay for my children, this is through a csa evaluation, and goes off of my monthly wage through the HMRC. There has been a dispute over money yet again with my ex partner and the csa have been nothing but helpful towards me in this frustrating time, I am fully cooperative with the csa and the dispute of money is due to a wrong financial assessment which is money I have not made, The csa and I are in full works together to get this solution sorted ASAP and the child matinance my ex partner receives is in full accordance to my monthly wage. I feel saddened it has come to this yet again. I would also like to point out in September 2017 I gave my ex partner 645,000 with an additional 15,000 of a suggestion of good will on my part towards my 3 children, my 3 children are my main priority and I hope the dignity I hold for them shines through Many thanks Jamie

In a report published by The Sun on Monday, a friend of Danielles said she was at her wits end after endless court battles with the father of her children.

It is alleged that Jamie has refused to pay a penny for the kids since 2016 and that debts that have built up over the last two years prompted the court to grant Jamie a liability order for £33,380.

Danielle says she is owed £27,457 of that sum and its now being chased by the Child Maintenance Service.

If he fails to pay it, he could lose his driving licence or be sent to jail, the newspaper claims.

Representatives for Jamie and Danielle have been contacted by Metro.co.uk for comment.

However, Jamie clarified that his money is being successfully deducted through HMRC via the Child Support Agency evaluations.

He claims his financial assessment was incorrect but he is working with CSA and CMS to get a solution sorted as soon as possible.

The child maintenance my ex partner receives is in full accordance to my monthly wage. I feel saddened it has come to this yet again.

I would also like to point out in September 2017 I gave my ex partner £645,000 with an additional £15,000 of a suggestion of good will on my part towards my 3 children, my 3 children are my main priority and I hope the dignity I hold for them shines through.

The model divorced Jamie in 2014 on the grounds of adultery and even though they were understood to have patched things up in February, relations appear to have turned bitter again.
