John Whittingdale admits to having relationship with a prostitute.

John Whittingdale, a British minister on Tuesday, April 12, admitted

to being a in a relationship with a sex worker, stating that he did

not know her profession at the time.

BBC reports that the minister made the confession but added that he

had broken off the relationship (which was before he became a

minister) having discovered the womans tricks to sell her story to a

newspaper.

He said:"This is an old story which was a bit embarrassing at the

time. The events occurred long before I took up my present position

and it has never had any influence on the decisions I have made as

Culture Secretary.

"Between August 2013 and February 2014, I had a relationship with

someone who I first met through Match.com. She was a similar age and

lived close to me.

"At no time did she give me any indication of her real occupation and

I only discovered this when I was made aware that someone was trying

to sell a story about me to tabloid newspapers. As soon as I

discovered, I ended the relationship."

Whittingdale also headed the Commons Culture, Media and Sport

committee and was famous for grilling media boss Rupert Murdoch over

the phone-hacking scandal at the now-defunct News of the World.

"It seems the press were quite deliberately holding a sword of

Damocles over John Whittingdale," Labour shadow cabinet minister Chris

Bryant stated.
