HENRY BOLTON only told his wife of his affair with a topless Model on CHRISTMAS EVE and his wife has now DROPPED his name and spoken out after the UKIP boss left her for a 25-year-old TOPLESS model.

Russian born Tatiana Smurova, who has dropped the Bolton name part of her surname, and said her priority were her two children – and made no mention of her soon to be ex-husband.

After telling Ukip members they would see a change in his relationship status on social media, Mr Bolton claimed his wife was fully aware of his affair with Miss Marney.

Sources close to the 54-year-old Ukip leader have said his marriage had been under strain for months after his wife moved to Vienna in Austria to take up a job with a EU funded security organization.

Ms Smurova told Mail Online: ‘All I can say at the moment is that the reports that have emerged are inaccurate.

‘However, my focus right now is on my children and at the moment I will not be commenting further.’

Bolton and his mistress were photographed together over the Christmas holidays and Mr Bolton has been staying at Miss Marney’s family home.

The former Army captain spent Christmas with 29-year-old Jo Marney after dumping his wife on Christmas Eve.

Dad-of-three Mr Bolton originally referred to his Russian wife Tatiana as “supportive” and told The Sun they had split in July.

Mr Bolton, wearing slippers, answered the door at Jo’s family home near Maidstone in Kent.

Asked if they were in a relationship, he replied: “The answer is yes, I’m here just visiting for the moment.

“My wife is fully aware of what’s been going on and has been abroad since July.”
