"I've kept your secrets, and I've been your friend.
"And I don't understand why you've blocked me and ignored me As If I was some fleeting one-night stand or Some Girl that you picked up at a bar because I wasn't - and you know that.
"And I'm terribly heartbroken by the way that you have cast me aside like I Am some Gremlin . "
Ms Arcuri appearing on the BBC's Talking Business programme in 2013Her latest interview, follows allegations, in September, that Ms Arcuri's business was given £126,000 in public money along with privileged access to three foreign trade trips led by Mr Johnson when he was Mayor , between 2008 and 2016.
The Greater London Authority (GLA) - whose job it is to oversee the conduct of The Mayor - launched an investigation into the alleged conflict of interest following The Paper 's report.

In response to the programme, the Conservative Party said it considered the decision to refer Mr Johnson to The Police watchdog as "vexatious and politically motivated".
