“These allegations are denied,” the lawyer said.

Ms Cole is a former Ultra Tune “rubber girl”, appearing in racy ads for the company that featured women in skin-tight outfits alongside celebrities including Mike Tyson, Jean-Claude van Damme and Charlie Sheen.

She appeared in a well-known ad beside Pamela Anderson and Warwick Capper last year.
