      The pair were so close they even shared a pet Chow Chow dog called Kai Lion Defoe, which has its own Instagram account.
      Snaps of telly pundit ­Defoe with the dog can still be seen on his public social media profile.

      Defoe and mum-of-one Donna, 40, married in a lavish £200,000 ceremony paid for by OK! magazine last summer.
      They hooked up after he messaged on social media and met when she asked him for a signed Rangers shirt for a charity event.
      A source said of Defoe’s split from Donna-Louise: “It was a really bad time in her life. She loved Jermain and it hit her for six.
      “It was a bitter pill for Donna-Louise to swallow, but she’s moved on from Jermain now.”

      The Sun on Sunday told last week how Defoe had shacked up with influencer Alisha LeMay, 31, following his split from “wife” Donna.
      There is no record of Defoe’s marriage to her at the local register office.
      OK! splashed the wedding across 14 pages and front cover, but did not have a reporter or snapper there, using pics the couple gave.
      No images of anyone marrying them were published.
      We told in October how Defoe had messaged a nurse begging for sex just weeks after his wedding.
      The former West Ham, Portsmouth and Sunderland ace, who scored 227 career goals, tried to lure her for a romp in his Range Rover.
      Donna-Louise declined to talk when contacted.

      Match of the Day prankster Dan Jarvis who tricked Gary Lineker with porn noise reveals how he did it

      by

      SEX noise prankster Daniel “Jarvo” Jarvis told how he beat security by marching into a football stadium with TV crew — and even helped himself to beers in a hospitality box.He and a pal later activated a £20 phone — one of the world’s loudest — to pump moans around the live Match of the Day studio.

      The stunt had BBC host Gary Lineker in stitches and stunned millions watching Tuesday’s Wolves v Liverpool FA Cup replay.
      YouTuber Jarvo, 30, wore black jeans and coat to blend in as he and the pal followed a TV crew into Wolves’s Molineux stadium a day before kick-off, nodding at security who let them pass unchecked.
      The pair used double-sided tape to stick the gold Yepen mobile to a 7ft wall on set, and changed the ringtone to the raunchy soundtrack.
      Jarvo told The Sun: “These things are all about confidence.“We got in because we made it look like we were meant to be there, so no one bats an eyelid.

      “If you hesitate, then you’ll get asked questions. But people from Wolves thought we were with the TV, and vice versa.
      “TV crews don’t dress particularly smartly so I fitted right in. There were about four staff working in the studio. We tried not to speak to them much, just saying ‘How are you?’
      “Our plan was to strap it under a chair or the table, but they might’ve got suspicious if we started moving stuff around.
      “So we strapped it to the top of the wall and because of the colour no one could see it. We had a cheers with the beers afterwards then it was a waiting game, hoping no one had found the phone.”

      A YouTube video posted during Tuesday’s match showed Jarvo call the phone to trigger the X-rated noise.
      He added: “I was at my cousin’s and couldn’t believe it worked. It was hilarious. We’ve tried this before and it didn’t work. But this must’ve been the magic of the FA Cup.”
      Jarvo and his mate spent 90 minutes inside Molineux. They filmed a jokey interview in the mix zone and posed in the dugouts.

      Jarvo, known as Jarvo69 online, added: “Staff didn’t say anything. I was tempted to jump in the home changing room ice bath but didn’t have a towel. I also used the toilet in the away dressing room, which is terrible — it’s like a PE changing room from the ’90s. After we planted the phone, we had a beer and got out.”
      Jarvo rang the phone at 1am on Tuesday to check it had not been found. He then buzzed it around 12 times from a burner device after the BBC went live at 7.30pm.
      The noise drowned out Lineker as he cut to the commentary team.
      He could barely be heard saying: “It is toasty in this studio. I am not sure if someone is sending something on somebody’s phone.”
      Jarvo streamed his calls, cracking up with laughter while ringing his mate who was inside Molineux recording the studio reaction.
      It showed pundit Paul Ince pointing to the noise’s source, while crew searched for it to no avail.
      Jarvo, of Gravesend, Kent, said: “There is a short delay with the TV so I was worried it didn’t work, but the camera went back to Lineker at the perfect time.
      “Those situations are so funny because no one has been in it before. You could see they were panicking but Lineker is such a pro and handled it really well. Everyone seems to have loved it. I feel like we’ve cheered up the nation a bit at a bad time.”
      Jarvo tried to prank BT Sport’s coverage of Fulham v Tottenham in 2021 but was let down by that phone’s sound quality.
      The incident also sparked a police alert.

      This time he bought five phones after searching for the world’s loudest mobiles.
      Man Utd fan Jarvo said: “This Yepen worked a treat. We’ve still got a few so TV and the Premier League better watch out!”
      Police have said it was not a criminal offence.
      The BBC apologised to viewers who may have been offended but Lineker said the corporation had nothing to say sorry for.
      He shared a picture of the phone after it was discovered and said: “As sabotage goes, it was quite amusing.”
      Liverpool won 1-0 and Lineker said at half-time: “Harvey Elliott’s goal was a screamer . . . which was not the only one we’ve had tonight.”

      Yesterday talkSPORT pundit Ally McCoist joked he’d never heard such a noise in his life, adding: “I’ve been doing it wrong for 40 years!”
      Jarvo added: “This prank will go down in history. I’ve always got things planned. I can’t tell you what’s next.” More

      But Gary, 62, who memorably had an on-pitch “accident” during England’s 1990 World Cup opener, joked: “If you told me yesterday morning that I’d be on the front page of The Sun, involved with a porn ­scandal, I’d have s*** myself — again!”
      Gary added: “I thought it was funny, and the YouTube prankster has shown his work.
      “It was that loud that I couldn’t really hear myself think, or what the other guys were saying, and realised people could probably hear it at home so I knew I had to both keep it together, whilst also addressing the matter.
      “In these situations, you have to keep your head.

      “Yes, it’s funny but you can’t overwhelm the show — you can’t ignore it.
      “But, and after the studio manager had located the strap-on phone, I started to have a bit of fun with it all.
      “So at half-time every question I asked about the analysis, my comments were some kind of reference to it.
      “Things like ‘Wolves huffed and puffed’ or ‘the only goal was a screamer — and not the only screamer we had’, and ‘Liverpool pressed really hard in trying to get behind them’ — all that kind of thing.
      Most read in Football
      “It was daft but it really did amuse me. And once I realised it was a prank, I knew that if I started laughing I probably wouldn’t have stopped.
      “It was the most surreal and one of the strangest things I’ve ever encountered in broadcasting.”
      Prankster Jarvo, a serial pitch invader, had broken into the studio and activated a sexy sounds ring tone on a mobile phone, which he hid on the set.
      He then called the phone during Gary’s studio segments at the Wolves v Liverpool FA Cup replay at Molineux on Tuesday.
      The BBC later issued a po-faced apology.
      But Gary questioned that decision.
      He said: “I’m not sure why the BBC apologised because it’s not our fault obviously.
      “It’s a security issue, and there is a serious side to it; if someone can do that, they can do something else with something that could be more dangerous.
      “But, in this instance, I felt that universally people were finding it really funny.

      “And actually I have to agree with them, even if it was at our expense.
