A WOMAN has claimed a Premier League star who allegedly raped her filmed the horrific attack and shared it with others.
The alleged victim, named as Chloe, has accused the footballer of assaulting her at a party when she was 19.
She claims he then immediately shared footage of the alleged attack eight years ago with revellers, Daily Mail reports.
Chloe revealed she has never seen the clip and has no idea whether it even still exists but told how part of her wants to see it.
She said: “I don’t know exactly what was shared. Part of me wishes I’d seen the video, so I had some form of evidence.
“I don’t think I had any idea what was going on. It’s still there in my mind, but how it got from him being sat in a chair to that…if I was with it, I’d surely remember him filming.”

Chloe said she had never met the footballer prior to that night eight years and hasn’t seen him since.
She told how she had been hanging out in the bedroom with her housemate and the player when her friend left.
Chloe said she asked “don’t shut the door” as she was adamant nothing would happen.
She admitted her memories are hazy about the alleged attack but claims she wasn’t drunk and never consented to sex.

Chloe said: “The next thing I remember is my housemate back at my room, banging on the door, asking, ‘What’s going on?’
“[The footballer] had a pillow covering himself and let her in. I’m surprised he even opened the door.”
It was then Chloe discovered the encounter had been filmed and was quickly circulating around the other party-goers, she claimed.
At the point, she claims she was still on the bed “unable to move” and struggling to understand what had happened.
Chloe has never reported the attack to the police or her parents and told how she “completely buried it”.
It was only when her boyfriend asked if she wanted to go to the football that she opened up to him.
She said: “I had completely buried it and shut it off in my head.
“I look back on those years and realise I wasn’t all right. I couldn’t even say the word ‘rape’ for a long time.
“The anger came through therapy and how that was impacting my life.

“It got to the point where the footballer who assaulted me would be playing against the team my boyfriend supported in the Premier League.
“By this point in our relationship, [my boyfriend] couldn’t touch me intimately without me having a panic attack or getting upset. It was impacting our relationship. It couldn’t not.”
