JERMAINE Pennant refused to do a lie detector test over cheating on The Jeremy Kyle Show as he revealed he and wife Alice Goodwin are trying for a baby.
The couple appeared on the ITV show to solve their relationship problems after the footballer’s controversial Celebrity Big Brother stint.
According to the pair, their marriage is on good terms and they’re even ready to start trying for a family, as they spoke to host Jeremy Kyle during the programme which airs Friday 19 at 09:25.
But Jermaine jokingly stormed off set when Jeremy offered him the chance to prove he has nothing hide by doing one of the show’s famous lie detector tests.
The ex-Liverpool winger, 35, said: “I’m alright. I’m good. But I’m not coming on the show to do one. Behind closed doors.”
Jeremy was keen to find out what’s in store next for the couple, with Jermaine revealing: “Go for a baby. I tried last night.
“I’d be happy with one but I don’t know if she’d be happy with two.”
Their appearance on the ITV show covered Jermaine’s flirting with kidnap model Chloe Ayling, 21, in the Big Brother house.
Jermaine apologised to his wife following his eviction from the show, which she refused to be in the audience for.
Alice explained: “I was a bit upset. I was sat at home waiting for him to explain himself.
“I was a bit p****d off because he acted immature in there, there’s no doubt about that.
“He acted a bit childish for sure. But like I say nothing physical went on, it got blown out of proportion. I was never going to leave him. He’s never cheated on me.
“Jermaine can act immature. It’s a game — he played the game, she played the game.
“The lack of communication between me and him at this point in time is the thing I struggled with.

“We’ve had discussions and there have been confusions for us both. Jermaine also has emotions and thought processes I don’t also understand all the time. We have had conversations and we have cleared things up on both sides I would say.
“But there was never at any point where I thought I can’t trust what he’s about to do or what he may have done or what he may do.”
