Karen Danczuk: 'I've never seen Simon so upset'
Simon Danczuk's ex-wife Karen says she "does not condone" the text messages that he sent to a 17-year-old girl but supports him and has "never seen him so upset".
The MP has been suspended from the Labour Party after admitting sexual text messages.
Karen said, "let's not forget, she's 17 - she is a woman" adding, "it's not right, but we've all had too much drink and drunkenly text".
