Ex-boyfriend admits Tulisa Contostavlos tape scandal

Justin Edwards, the ex-boyfriend of X Factor judge Tulisa Contostavlos has admitted at the High Court that he was behind the leaking of their infamous sex tape.

The 28-year-old, known as rapper MC Ultra, had previously denied leaking the six minute clip earlier this year.

But yesterday his barrister Jacob Dean told the court: “Mr Edwards has admitted responsibility for publication of the video, apologised for it, and promised not to do it again.”

Tulisa won a High Court order banning publication of the six-minute clip back in March, although by then it had already spread across social media sites online.

Hitting back at Justin when the video first appeared earlier this year, Tulisa said: “When you share an intimate moment with someone that you love, you care about and you trust, you never imagine for one minute that that footage may at any point be shared with the rest of the UK or the rest of the people around the world.”

The case between the pair has now been settled, by Tulisa is continuing action against others also accused to distributing the tape.
