It was reported yesterday that Withers pleaded guilty to punching a man and his girlfriend at a pub in Somerset last year. He had also been found charging £50 an hour on an escort website.
Mo, seen winning a date with Withers on Saturday's (January 7) edition of the show, has now spoken of her distress at the allegations surrounding the 32-year-old - revealing that she was left scarred after being domestically abused at the age of 17.
"I'm shocked. There is definitely no way that if I knew a guy had hit a woman that I would have slept with him," the 28-year-old told The Mirror. "I had bruises all over my face and body, cuts on my face, so I understand it and would never do that.
"He manipulated me just to have sex with him. He manipulated this whole situation. Not only has he made a fool out of me, he's got me cut out of the show - so I'm really p*ssed off... I feel as though I've been made to look a total fool."
Mo also claimed that Withers had actually been in a relationship when he appeared on Take Me Out.
In a separate interview, Withers revealed that he has slept with more than 100 woman and described his escort past as "weird".
ITV confirmed that footage of the couple's date has been axed from this week's edition of Take Me Out.
