MARRIED rugby legend Lawrence Dallaglio sent a businesswoman filthy text messages and pictures — including a snap of his todger taken on a busy train.
She told how the ex-England captain repeatedly asked for sex after they met at a betting event but she refused. She said: “He’s arrogant and his ego’s massive.” She also described him as “an awful person”.

The 33-year-old met ex-England captain Dallaglio, a married dad of three, at a betting firm event and assumed from his behaviour he was single.
He was soon messaging her behind his wife Alice’s back asking for sex — and sent four lewd pictures including a snap of his todger that he took while on a train.
The woman said: “I was stupid and naive. He never talked about his wife so I assumed they’d split.
“We never met for sex but he was always asking me to. It was a bit of fun and I honestly thought I was the only woman. He’s awful — what kind of a person does that? I think his wife has a right to know.”

Dallaglio texted her one obscene picture claiming to be on a busy train. He wrote: “On the train south. You’ve got me all filthed up now. I’m so f***ing horny.”
Then, in reference to how he took the picture, he added: “Under the table on the train.”
The woman said: “Thank God I never had sex with him. I feel like I dodged a bullet.
“He’s so arrogant and his ego is massive because he’s famous.”

Dallaglio, 46, took a risk if he exposed himself in a carriage.
Anyone found guilty of indecency on a train can be jailed for up to nine months.
It is not known if there were other passengers near him at the time.
Dallaglio, who claims on his Twitter account to be a “big family man” last messaged the woman a week ago saying: “I owe you a nice pic.” He then asked: “How’s that beautiful brown body?”
Cocaine boast shame
DALLAGLIO resigned as England captain in 1999 after reporters recorded him bragging about drug dealing and using ecstasy and cocaine.
At a later press conference he said he had been “foolish and naive”.
He insisted he had been drunk and the boasts were lies — and that he was the victim of an “elaborate set-up”.
Three weeks later, while being investigated by rugby officials, it emerged in legal statements that Dallaglio allegedly took cocaine in a bar as he and clubmates celebrated a win.
One of the statements was given by chef Richard Nicholls who said he saw Dallaglio snort coke. The other was by Nicholls’ girlfriend who said she heard Dallaglio ask him if he could supply ecstasy.
He was fined £15,000 after pleading guilty to a charge of bringing the game of rugby into disrepute and had to pay a further £10,000 in legal costs.
Afterwards he said: “All I can do now is act in the most honourable way for the good of the England rugby team and the good of my family.
“I will throw all my efforts and attentions into proving I am a good player and, more importantly, a good person.”
He played as a flanker, winning 85 caps for England — and was part of the team that won the 2003 World Cup thanks to Jonny Wilkinson’s last-gasp drop kick.
He was awarded an MBE in 2004 and an OBE in 2008.
Dallaglio, who is now a rugby pundit and commentator for BT Sport, is also reported to have raised over £20million for charity.
He set up his own charity Dallaglio Rugby Works in 2009 which aims to get teenagers into education or employment. It currently works with over 70 schools.

The woman first met Dallaglio at the Betfair AGM in London in December 2017 — two years after the betting firm appointed him as an ambassador. She was then added to a WhatsApp group through a mutual friend and sent a communal message wishing everyone a Merry Christmas.
The former player immediately replied saying he was happy to hear from her. He then asked her to only contact him using the instant messaging service Telegram, which is encrypted.
Dallaglio, who lives in a £3million house in Surrey with his family, is a global ambassador for Land Rover.
In 2012 he teamed up with former England cricket captain Andrew Flintoff for an Olympic-themed bike ride from Athens to London — an event which raised £2million.

Two years later he raised over £1million cycling from Italy to Twickenham. In February he met Prince Harry at a charity fundraising event in aid of Try for Change, an England rugby programme committed to supporting disadvantaged young people.
Earlier this month it was revealed he is to launch a weekend-long cycling event in June in Chichester as his latest fundraising venture.
He regularly speaks out about mental health in an attempt to end the stigma around the condition.

Dallaglio has revealed rugby lifted him from a “dark place” following the death of his sister.
In 2005 he also revealed wife Alice cheated on him with his property developer friend Leon Butler before the pair married.
When his autobiography It’s In The Blood: My Life was released two years later, he spoke of his love for his family.
Describing how Alice asked him to move out in 2005, he said: “What killed me was waking up in a house that didn’t have my kids in it. I live for the moment.
“Naturally, when you have children, you live for their moments as well. All I wish for is to stay healthy and enjoy my family and my children as much as possible. For me, family is everything.”
