Vanessa bedded former Leeds and Man Utd striker Alan Smith in a passionate fling, the News Of The World has revealed today.

The pair got together late last year when Smith saw Vanessa serving at the bar of the high-class Malmaison hotel - and they quickly got straight down to business.

"It was purely about sex.", said a friend of the South African. "They had a fantastic time in the sack. Vanessa would ring Alan when she wanted sex. He'd rush round and they'd go to bed."

The liason ended shortly after, however, with Vanessa breaking it off after tiring of the attention Smith got from other girls.
