England captain John Terry was booed on the football terraces this afternoon after it was revealed he had cheated on his wife with a team-mate's girlfriend.
Whenever the disgraced £170,000-a-week Chelsea captain touched the ball, he was jeered from the terraces of Turf Moor Stadium.
While the boos didn't appear to distract Terry from the game, he was given a yellow card just 18 minutes in after a foul.
His yellow card prompted fans to cheer 'same old Terry, always cheating', which appeared to have a double meaning now.
Terry's sheepish appearance on the pitch today comes after reports broke yesterday of his affair with French underwear model Vanessa Perroncel - his wife's best friend and the partner of fellow England defender Wayne Bridge.
Terry, 29, who has three-year-old twins with his childhood sweetheart Toni, is facing a backlash from players and fans fearing the storm will rock the England squad and ruin the team's chances at this summer's World Cup in South Africa.
Leading Chelsea out for their Premiership clash with Burnley this evening, Terry looked strained and tired as he walked onto the pitch accompanied by two young fans.
Earlier, he refused to talk about the allegations as he left the team's hotel in Accrington for the game, but stopped to sign an autograph for a fan.
An insider said Terry had to be consoled by staff on the teach coach and was 'in bits' after reading today's newspapers.
Celebrity publicist Max Clifford confirmed that he has taken on Perroncel as a client after she phoned him last night.
Mr Clifford, who is on holiday in Spain, said the woman is currently monitoring reports of the allegations and is considering what to do next.
'I think she really wants to read the papers, see what is said and decide from there,' he said.
Mr Clifford said he plans to meet the woman tomorrow after he flies back to Britain.
While the rest of the parties involved have kept silent, her ex-partner Bridge released a statement through his lawyer today appealing for privacy.
He said: 'I have read the press reporting in the last two days. The reports deal with matters which are of a deeply personal and private nature.
'My primary concern is the welfare of my son. Therefore, I intend to make no comment whatsoever either now or in the future about these reports and ask that my privacy is respected.'
Within minutes of the story breaking on Friday, the internet was awash with angry calls for Terry to be stripped of the captaincy.
The Chelsea star had initially used human rights laws to obtain a gagging order against the press, claiming his right to a 'private and family life'.
But the judge who threw out the order said he thought Terry was more concerned about the threat to his lucrative sponsorship deals.
Even the existence of the so-called 'super-injunction' was supposed to be a secret. But in a landmark ruling for press freedom, Mr Justice Tugendhat ruled that the public had a right to know.
He told the High Court that people should have the right to criticise 'socially harmful' behaviour because freedom of speech is as important as the right to privacy.
Experts believe his ruling could open the floodgates to more revelations - high on the list being the identity of the Premier League manager recently accused of visiting a brothel.
The decision will shatter Terry's recently-acquired family man image and could lose him millions in commercial sponsorships.
But the judge said Terry had made no mention of personal distress and appeared to be 'a very robust personality.' He said the secrecy claim was more likely to be about 'protection of reputation' and was 'essentially a business matter'.
The judge was critical of the way Terry, his business partners and Schillings, one of the best-known celebrity law firms, had tried to keep the affair under wraps.
Terry, recently crowned celebrity 'father of the year', was not in court and kept out of public sight as the scandal broke.
He has long been close friends with Bridge and until recently they were neighbours in a gated community in Surrey. Bridge was with Terry at Chelsea for five years until he moved to Manchester City in 2008.
Until last week, no one knew that Terry was having a secret sexual affair with Bridge's girlfriend. When Miss Perroncel's relationship with Bridge collapsed last July, it was to Terry's wife Toni, her best friend, that she turned for support. The two women are even understood to have holidayed together.
The court has not said when Terry's affair began or how long it lasted, but there was one unconfirmed suggestion that it was still going as recently as last month.
The alleged relationship had 'consequences', the court heard - but their nature was not spelt out.
Sources close to Bridge said he was 'in bits'. The 29-year-old has a three-year-old son with Miss Perroncel.
Jaydon Jean Claude Bridge was born in November 2006 but when Bridge moved to Manchester City a year ago, Miss Perroncel remained in their Surrey mansion.
Bridge said nothing when he was asked about his teammate's behaviour yesterday as he left his club's training ground before returning to his £2million rented mansion in Alderley Edge, Cheshire.
But even fellow England stars - not always known for their family values - were privately condemning Terry for 'crossing the line' in sleeping with a teammate's partner.
He also faces the wrath of England manager Fabio Capello - the Italian has famously strict moral values. Capello will come under pressure to strip Terry of the England captaincy if his off-field behaviour is causing a rift in the team.
FA insiders claimed Terry's future depended on how fellow players react to him before a friendly against Egypt in March.
Yesterday there was no sign of Terry at his £4million home where, on Monday, he confessed his infidelity to his wife. Terry has previously admitted to cheating on Toni.
In 2005, two years before marrying, he said: 'I've misbehaved and slept with girls behind her back. I'm not going to cheat on her ever again and I want to marry her more than anything.'
But the day he was quoted, it emerged he had a fling with a blonde - and even borrowed his friend Bridge's £4million house as a love nest.
His alleged lover Shalimar Wimble, 25, told a Sunday newspaper: 'John never mentioned his fiancée Toni to me - I guess that's why he took me to Wayne's place.'
Yesterday the judge made it clear he thought Terry's history as a love rat was very much relevant in deciding whether he should be allowed to keep his latest transgression a secret.
Mr Justice Tugendhat said it was crucial that newspapers should not be prevented from reporting things that were 'socially harmful'.
Even before the order was lifted, the internet was buzzing with details of Terry's infidelity. He was named on at least one football website, while posts on the social networking site Twitter ridiculed the England captain. One said: 'Everyone knew he was boffing the (rather gorgeous) girlfriend of Wayne Bridge - let the story run.'
The case echoes former England captain David Beckham's alleged affair with Rebecca Loos.
He was never forced to quit his post, but then again the England coach at the time, Sven Goran Eriksson, was busy having a secret affair of his own.
The underwear model and her friendship with the WAG next door
John Terry's wife and his mistress were the most unlikely of best friends.
Toni Poole, 28, is a working-class girl who shuns the public eye and is happy to stay at home with the twin children she has by her childhood sweetheart.
Vanessa Perroncel is a French-born lingerie model who has posed provocatively in a series of 'lads' mags'.
Yet they holidayed together last summer and were regular guests in each other's neighbouring homes.
Miss Poole, 28, had dated Terry from the age of 16, when he was a year older and an apprentice footballer on £48 a week still living with his family in an estate in Barking, East London.
She worked briefly as a beautician, but in an age of WAGs is more like the traditional footballers' wife - a loyal, quiet presence in the background.
She and Miss Perroncel became friends in 2006 after the exotic model, who is thought to be around 29, had begun dating Wayne Bridge. He was Terry's Chelsea teammate and neighbour - as well as an accommodating friend.
In 2005 a tabloid newspaper told how Bridge allowed Terry to use his house to have sex with a secretary when he wasn't there.
Afterwards, Terry apologised for his transgression and vowed that it would be the last. At the time, it was the eighth to be publicised in tabloid newspapers.
Whatever doubts his long-term partner might have had over Bridge, she quickly became friendly with his new girlfriend, despite their differences.
Miss Perroncel was certainly different-having made a career out of her body once she moved to the UK.
She posed provocatively in a whole array of downmarket lads' magazines including Maxim - where she was labelled a Maxim Mate - and Front.
Apart from her magazine appearances, she posed with Sacha Baron-Cohen's film creation Ali G, she in a white bra and red knickers as he lay between her parted legs.
Toni and Vanessa headed - along with the other WAGs - to Baden Baden in Germany for their now notorious stay during England's ill-fated World Cup campaign in 2006.
The friendship between the two women intensified after Toni gave birth to twins, son George and daughter Summer, and Vanessa had a son, Jaydon Jean Claude five months later.
The following summer, Miss Perroncel and Bridge were both guests when Terry wed Toni at Blenheim Palace in Oxfordshire and last summer they went on a 'girls' break' together.
Yesterday's revelations suggest another holiday is unlikely - and there is likely to be a distinct froideur the next time they meet in their Footballers' Wives estate.
After ten years of secrecy, a powerful blow for freedom
The John Terry ruling is a powerful blow against the growth of the privacy law used by celebrities to silence their critics and keep their bad behaviour secret.
For the first time in a decade a senior judge has come down against secrecy, and in favour of freedom of speech and the right of ordinary people to criticise the rich and famous.
The privacy laws have been built up by judges - and one judge in particular - without endorsement from Parliament. They have, for the first time in centuries, made it against the law to tell the truth about the wealthy and the powerful.
They have been based on the Human Rights Act and its guarantee of 'respect for private and family life'.
Yesterday's judgement from Mr Justice Tugendhat also signals the end for the celebrity super-injunction, which are designed to stop anyone revealing private information and are so secret that no one is allowed to mention their very existence.
Privacy rules reached their zenith in 2008 when the judge most associated with privacy rulings, Mr Justice Eady, found in favour of Max Mosley.
The Formula One chief said the News of the World breached his privacy when it reported his participation in a sado-masochistic orgy conducted in German with five prostitutes. Mr Justice Eady said that since Mosley's orgy was conducted in a private flat, it was not a matter that could lawfully be discussed by others, and nobody was allowed to report it.
But Mr Justice Tugendhat's 37-page judgment backed the right of newspapers to report and help form public opinion, and said that those who feel their privacy has been infringed should have to argue their case in open court.
His findings are an effective counterweight to the Mosley judgment and lawyers believe they will have been discussed with other senior judges, in particular the other two judges who deal with serious libel and privacy cases, Eady and Mrs Justice Sharpe.
Mystery of the £1 silence agreement
An extraordinary attempt to silence John Terry's lover Vanessa Perroncel was revealed by the judge.
In documents disclosed by Terry's lawyers to the court, it was claimed that she was offered £1 in return for signing a confidentiality agreement.
But Judge Tugendhat said he believed it could have been a nominal sum and she might have been given more.
The deal was done at a hotel after Terry became concerned about rumours circulating in the football world a week ago.
He believed a newspaper was about to expose his secret, and was warned the News of the World was 'all over it', although it is understood the paper had made no formal approaches.
On Friday January 22, two of Terry's business partners met Miss Perroncel at a London hotel and she signed two documents, the court heard.
The first was a short letter which said: 'I agree to keep such information private and confidential', and promising to pass any media inquiries on to one of Terry's business partners.
The second document said she agreed to keep quiet, 'in order to assist you in keeping such information confidential and in consideration of £1, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged'.
The judge said he was 'troubled' by the arrangement - and wondered whether the woman was really only paid £1. He added he did 'not feel confident' that the documents really expressed her wishes.
Judge Tugendhat also expressed concern that the business partners were not solicitors, trained in taking statements from witnesses.
'It is very important that information from witnesses should be what the witness truly believes, and that words should not be put into the mouth of a witness,' he said.
In a scathing remark, he added: 'Their business interest is to protect Terry's reputation. I am left in serious doubt as to whether the information sourced through the business partners is full and frank.'
The court did not name the two business partners, but said they were engaged in the promotion of the player for sponsorship deals and the protection of his image.
The Daily Mail contacted Elite Management, run by Paul Nicholls and Keith Cousins, who represent Terry, to ask if they were the business partners referred to. Neither was available for comment.
Terry's £4million sponsorship deal under threat
Sponsors are under pressure to ditch John Terry, potentially costing the player millions.
The England captain has a £4million contract to wear Umbro sports shoes at every match.
He has also appeared in adverts for the Nationwide building society and electronics giant Samsung.
In a scathing ruling, the judge made it clear he suspected Terry was more afraid of losing the commercial deals than anything else.
He said the footballer appeared to have brought his High Court action in a desperate move to protect his earnings - rather than the woman with whom he had been conducting his affair.
Terry's attempt at a cover-up came as golfer Tiger Woods was estimated to be losing $1million (£625,000) a day after sponsors deserted him following revelations of his extramarital affairs.
Mr Justice Tugendhat referred to Terry's 'number of high-profile sponsorship or endorsement deals for companies'.
The judge said that income earned from such deals for 'successful professionals' could be 'very large indeed', adding: 'But high-profile sponsors are sensitive to the reputation of the sports professionals to whom they pay large sponsorship fees for promoting the sponsor's products.'
Yesterday the silence was deafening as none of Terry's sponsors was prepared to discuss him.
An Umbro spokesman said: 'There is absolutely no comment about this at this time.' A spokesman for Samsung - which sponsors Terry's Premiership side Chelsea - was unavailable, while Nationwide was quick to point out it was the England team it sponsored, rather than Terry personally.
The player had an estimated personal wealth of almost £17million in April last year.
PR guru Max Clifford predicted that football fans would not be 'too concerned' at the actions of Terry and, because neither Nationwide nor Samsung was 'that family-orientated' it would be highly unlikely for those two firms to drop Terry.
He said: 'It all depends how sensitive the sponsors are to both their clients and their customers and I honestly do not think what John Terry has done is going to upset them.'
