Stacey told a pal: “Max cheated on me with Maisie. I asked him about his relationship with Maisie and he denied that anything had occurred.
“He said he was like an uncle to Maisie.”
“After everything I’ve done for him, I cannot believe he would be so rude and disrespectful. He’s a lying dog. I feel betrayed.
“I’m very shocked he could be so cruel and I don’t recognise the person he’s become. I think Max has become obsessed with fame.”
Stacey, the ex-wife Manchester United star Ryan Giggs started dating Max in January 2019.
The following April their relationship became public and he moved into her £3.5million Manchester home.
Max and Stacey shared the home with her two children from her marriage to Giggs — currently on trial accused of assaulting his former girlfriend Kate Greville, which he denies.

They had dinner together on July 27 to discuss their lives and ended up going to bed.
Stacey told the friend: “I confronted him millions of times about his closeness to her. He denied it every time.
“I had a gut instinct they were more than just friends.
“I dumped Max because I thought he might cheat. Although we split up for a while, Max always wanted to stay.
“He was using my former marital home like a hotel – he would walk around like he owned the place taking selfies for his Instagram.”
“He’s a two-bit pop star and a fame-hungry man-child.”
Stacey believes that on July 28 —Max flew to Portugal, where he met up with Maisie and two other friends from the tour.
Central Recorder was informed by a British tourist that he saw the couple in Albufeira kissing and holding hands. “We got chatting and they said they were dating but that we mustn’t tell anyone.”

Stacey shared the following with her pal: “Eventually I had enough of his lies and constant need for attention and kicked him out of the house. But he seems to have gone straight off to Maisie.”
Stacey had been tipped off that the pair had been sneaking into each other’s hotel rooms during the dance tour.
She said to her friend: “I gave Max millions of chances. I even gave him one final opportunity to be honest — and still he said he wasn’t with Maisie and that he was in fact in Spain.
“First of all he wouldn’t answer the phone and blocked me.
“But eventually we had a big row and he called me fat and said Maisie was fitter.
“He was in denial. I told him I’d heard they were in Portugal but he still said he wasn’t with her and he was in Spain. He will use Maisie just like he used me.”
Max claims that his relationship to Maisie began after Stacey’s divorce.
However, he revealed to Central Recorder Sunday that he had formed a bond with Maisie during Strictly Tour.
He said: “There’s a couple of us who always get told off by bosses for messing around — we’re the naughty ones.
“It’s usually me and Maisie. We are the loud, boisterous ones.”

“I was drinking more to forget the fact I was with someone who wasn’t making me that happy.”
Bobbi Aney, a music industry PA, told a newspaper Max had cheated on her after he got together Michelle.
She said: “It wasn’t even that I was heartbroken over not having him any more.
