I'm a Celebrity - Marc Bannerman questioned by cops

10 December 2007 - Marc Bannerman has been quizzed by police in Wales following an incident with a paparazzo, it has emerged.

The jungle celebrity, who has garnered more attention for his blossoming romance with Cerys Matthews, was questioned by Dyfed Powys Police after a scuffle with a photographer outside a pub near Cerys' home.

According to Wales on Sunday, the ex-EastEnders star was upset over having been followed by the snapper and approached the pap with a male friend.

They took his camera away from him and removed the memory card, the newspaper alleged.

"Then the friend came back outside and gave the camera back without the memory card in it," an eyewitness said.

However, the photographer then boxed them in with his car and refused to move, then called the authorities.

The owner of the pub told Wales on Sunday: "They weren't doing anything wrong - it was the photographers doing wrong. It was a shame because it spoilt a good day for them."

Meanwhile, the plot thickens for Marc and Cerys, whose relationship has courted controversy from the word go.

A woman told the News of the World this weekend that she took drugs with Marc while surrounded by pictures of his then-girlfriend Sarah Matravers.
