Retail therapy: Imogen Thomas leaves clothes store Debra in Chigwell today laden down with bags full of dresses


At times of stress and heartbreak some women rely on a good old fashion spree of retail therapy.

And Imogen Thomas was no exception today - and by the looks of things, she possibly relieved a lot of her tension.

Imogen, who has been at the centre of the storm over a super-injunction regarding her alleged affair with footballer Ryan Giggs, who was named by MP John Hemming in Parliament this week, was snapped leaving a clothes store in Essex today.


She was laden down with five bags of shopping as she treated herself to some lovely new things for her wardrobe.

Imogen, a former Miss Wales, 28, was seen leaving Debra at Chigwell - a favourite with The Only Way is Essex girls - today clutching the white bags.

A source at the shop told Mail Online that Imogen bought mainly dresses some smart fitted ones, a couple of maxi dresses and some casual summer ones.

She also bought some tops amid reports that she is about to flee the furore and head off on holiday for a relaxing break from it all.

But she still looked strained and as though she had the weight of the world on her shoulders even after her retail therapy.

That could also have something to with a number of death threats she is believed to have been sent on Twitter.

A source close to Miss Thomas told the Sun newspaper today she is 'so frightened of attack that she plans to fly away on holiday as soon as possible, and will quit her London home when she returns'.

They added: 'She's in fear of her life because these people have said they know where she lives, the make and model of her car, and have named members of her family.'

Today she was snapped arriving at a police station in London, as officers are believed to be in the process of trying to track down users of the social networking site who posted the threats.

Meanwhile, Giggs, 37, was seen leaving his London hotel ahead of tomorrow's Champions League final against Barcelona.

According to the Mirror, his wife Stacey has told the left winger to 'go out there and play the game of your life'.

The player has admitted he was a 'fool' and wishes it had never happened and he is relieved that his wife is standing by him.
