Tony Bellew's wife's foul-mouthed homophobic rant caught on camera after fight

This is the moment Tony Bellew's wife branded a worker a "f****** queer" and a "dirty f****** fag" in a shocking foul-mouthed homophobic rant.

Bellew, 35, was KO'd by world champion Oleksandr Usyk in the eighth round of his retirement fight on Saturday night.

And following his defeat, wife Rachael Roberts was filmed shouting at a member of the Manchester Arena bar staff.

While in a lift with Ms. Roberts, the worker asked if the fight was over and, learning it was, said: "thank god for that".

Ms. Roberts took offence and, referring to her three sons, screamed: ""They are f****** crying right now you f****** queer - dirty f****** fag."

The worker, who asked not to be named, said: "Her actions were completely out of order for the wife of a celebrity boxer.

"What I asked was not meant to take offence and it was simply a question about the match.

"After we found out that Tony lost the fight, I thought she was using the anger of Tony's loss and directing it at us."

The bar staff left the main arena via the staff and guest lift and were joined by Ms. Roberts, a security guard and another woman.

The man who filmed the incident said: "It had been a busy night and I just wanted to desperately get home after a long shift.

"However, after stepping into the lift with my colleague, I was joined by a woman in a black dress who was accompanied by a security guard and another woman from the boxing sponsor.

"We never knew it was Rachael Roberts."

"As the lift descended from the second floor of the stadium to the ground floor, I then asked if the match had finished because our bar was not in the main arena and so we couldn't see the main actions in the arena."

He said the woman with Rachael said the fight was over, and his colleague then commented: "Thank god for that."

But he claims Rachael replied: "How f****** dare you, do you know who I am?"

His colleague responded "excuse me", he said, and then she started to make remarks about his colleague's sexuality and he started filming.

Bellew has known Rachael since he was nine and the couple, whose sons Corey, Cobey and Carter are all under 13, tied the knot this summer.

The Bellews' spokesman told the Daily Star: "Tony and Rachael will be making no official comment.

"Saturday night was an incredibly emotional evening for anyone associated with Tony. Especially his wife Rachael.

"She was provoked by a male member of staff who said 'I'm pleased Tony got knocked the f*** out' causing the reaction shown.

"Rachael is in no way homophobic."

Of course the worker could go to the police and complain about the account, voicing a hate crime against homosexuals. I'm sure the Bellews would be very willing to offer the individual some sort of compensation in an out of court settlement.

If this was myself just like a slight car accident, I would have had severe back issues from the lift incident an d insisted my solicitor got me the very best physio treatment while he was working on my case on a no win no fee basis.

It does seem more likely that someone made the 'glad he got knocked out comment' and had their camera ready for the reaction.


What I hate about society at the minute is the fact your are being bullied into accepting LGBT, or you are give the label "homophobic". Not saying It's an issue for me, but I heard a women on the radio today saying that her religious values are not in line with that way of thinking, and who is concerned about her religious views?

This country has gone mad. If I was having a argument with someone and they had glasses I'd call em a 4 eyed pudendum does that make me a glassaphobe. If your arguing with someone normally names get thrown about it don't mean nothing it's just what happens

Joking aside, I don't think there's an issue, she's just seen her husband knocked out and heard some plonker mouthing off and she's got a bit vocal about it.

She does seem that type to be fair.. :lol:

Calling a queer a fornicating faggot isnt acceptable these days whether anyone likes it or not and since everyone has a cam & social media in their pocket people should be careful about their public outbursts - especially the rich and famous (even by association)

Silly mistake.

Of course not and i wouldn’t be worrying about tony being too hard on her for it either as he proudly stood with his wbc world title in front of a large everton banner that read “kenny dalglish is a homosexual” grinning like a chesire cat giving a thumbs up :lol:

I don’t we’ll be seeing either of them joining liam in next years gay pride march.

Agreed. Absolutely no context to that clip either. Blatantly said something a bit more than he tells the paper.

Yeah what she says isn't pc but when you get wound up enough to flip you don't necessarily make the most sense and choose your words carefully. Think the world's so eager to get offended these days.

If this fella is big enough to gob off he is big enough to have it thrown back at him.
In reality he is lucky he didn't get smashed up.
I imagine he deliberately provoked her to get a reaction with phone in hand ready to record and get his pieces of silver from a dirty tabloid.
