Speaking on the Mad, Sad and Bad with Paloma Faith podcast, the actress and writer talked frankly about why she’s not sorry she cheated on her ex-partner.
While the mum-of-three didn’t confirm which ex she cheated on, showbiz’s most frank and funny woman previously dated actor and writer Jeff Leach, 41, and also had an off/off romance with comedian Alex Edelman, 36.
When asked what is ‘the most bada** thing’ she has ever done, Katherine, who is currently in a civil partnership with Bobby Kootstra, 41, confirmed: “I cheated on one of my partners.”
She then admitted: “And that’s bad, but I feel he deserved it and I’m always really glad that I did it.”
Katherine confirmed that being unfaithful was an “exit strategy”, to which Paloma, 43, claimed: “It’s black and white thinking.
“Men do it and then it’s like ‘awful for the woman, she’s a victim of that’.
“And then when a woman does it, she is literally the devil.”
Katherine stressed she felt she “had” to cheat to get out of her relationship, as she explained: “I had no choice, I feel.
“The choice, I suppose, would have been, be more courageous and just go.
“But in this relationship, we were done. I had asked him to leave.
“Especically as a single mother, people were like ‘oh he left you’.
“No. I begged him to leave for a long time and then finally, isn’t it funny that a lot of men won’t respect that choice, like they will respect another man’s property, so once another man comes into the picture, they go ‘oh’.”

To this, Paloma joked: “This tree has been p****d on by somebody else, just like dogs.”
Katherine then quipped: “I just needed to get p****d on.”
Four red flags your partner is cheating
Private Investigator Aaron Bond from BondRees revealed four warning signs your partner might be cheating.
They start to take their phone everywhere with them
In close relationships, it’s normal to know each other’s passwords and use each other’s phones, if their phone habits change then they may be hiding something.
Aaron says: “If your partner starts changing their passwords, starts taking their phone everywhere with them, even around the house or they become defensive when you ask to use their phone it could be a sign of them not being faithful.”
“You should also look at how they place their phone down when not in use. If they face the phone with the screen facing down, then they could be hiding something.”
They start telling you less about their day
When partners cheat they can start to avoid you, this could be down to them feeling guilty or because it makes it easier for them to lie to you.
“If you feel like your partner has suddenly begun to avoid you and they don’t want to do things with you any more or they stop telling you about their day then this is another red flag.”
“Partners often avoid their spouses or tell them less about their day because cheating can be tough, remembering all of your lies is impossible and it’s an easy way to get caught out,” says Aaron.
Their libido changes
Your partner’s libido can change for a range of reasons so it may not be a sure sign of cheating but it can be a red flag according to Aaron.
Aaron says: “Cheaters often have less sex at home because they are cheating, but on occasions, they may also have more sex at home, this is because they feel guilty and use this increase in sex to hide their cheating. You may also find that your partner will start to introduce new things into your sex life that weren’t there before.”
They become negative towards you
Cheaters know that cheating is wrong and to them, it will feel good, this can cause tension and anxiety within themselves which they will need to justify.
“To get rid of the tension they feel inside they will try to convince themselves that you are the problem and they will become critical of you out of nowhere. Maybe you haven’t walked the dog that day, put the dishes away or read a book to your children before bedtime. A small problem like this can now feel like a big deal and if you experience this your partner could be cheating,” warns Aaron.
But while she doesn’t regret her infidelity, the Canadian, who recently opened up on her shock health diagnosis, admitted: “It wasn’t great, it felt awful at the time.”
As well as this, Katherine, who previously took a savage swipe at Danny Jones after he was filmed in a drunken kiss with Maura Higgins claimed: “I had so much guilt.
I had no choice, I feel

“You never wanna hurt someone else intentionally.
“But looking back at the bigger picture, no one knows what’s going on for the 10 years or the five years or the two years, or whatever it may be.”
‘Imagine a guy saying this’
But social media users were left gobsmacked by Katherine’s claims and eagerly raced to share their thoughts online.
One person said: “Wow. This is horrendous! It’s not ok to cheat on someone!”
Another added: “Imagine a guy saying this.”
Meanwhile, someone else chimed in and commented: “I don’t care what people say I love Katherine Ryan.”
