Ashley Cain has been accused of using derogatory language towards women in a slew of vile social media posts dating back several years.

The TV personality and former footballer was a frequent tweeter prior to working with the BBC, having begun filming a documentary series, Ashley Cain: Into the Danger Zone, earlier this year.

Having since been commissioned for a second season, the BBC Three programme sees the 35-year-old Ex on the Beach star travel to Brazil to meet young men living in Rio’s most dangerous favelas.
