She claims the alleged attack took place at Antony’s home in Manchester last October.
In the interview, Ingrid claims she never had a relationship with the Premier League footballer but found his behaviour “strange”.
Ingrid said: “I was there strictly for business. He invited me and upon my arrival I discovered he had second intentions. I was never anyone’s mistress.”

Who is Rayssa de Freitas?
Rayssa de Freitas, a law student, has also accused the winger of physical attacks, Brazilian outlets Jornal Extra and Record report.
The student said she required hospital treatment following an incident in May 2022, after she was allegedly attacked by Antony and a woman after they left a Sao Paulo nightclub.
What has Rayssa de Freitas said about Antony?
A police report from May 2022 by Rayssa, which has been made public, describes alleged violent behaviour from the footballer and internet personality Mallu Ohana.
Rayssa describes an alleged incident when she and Mallu – Brazil player Dudu’s ex-wife – got into the backseat of Antony’s Land Rover after a night out in Brazil.
She claimed Antony was behind the wheel, and his hairdresser Rafa Contes, was also in the car.
The influencer reportedly told police in Brazil that she ended up falling out with Mallu because she didn’t want to “continue the fun” with the rest of them.
Rayssa claimed the argument turned violent and she was attacked by Mallu and Antony.
She alleged she opened the car’s back door and fled after Antony stopped at a traffic light.
The police report claimed that a motorcyclist driving behind the Land Rover reportedly witnessed the alleged attack, before writing down Antony’s licence plate.
As soon as Rayssa got out of the car, the motorcyclist claimed Antony sped off to an unknown destination.
Following this, the law student was hospitalised, the Brazilian newspaper reports.
Antony strongly denies all allegations against him.
Sao Paulo Civil Police are investigating the allegations of assault alongside Greater Manchester Police.
