Amelle BerabbahAmelle BerabbahAmelle Berrabah has had one hell of a past 14 months.

And it’s taken a lot out of her.

But it’s not surprising after you hear her shocking story...

It all began when her little sister Samiya accused Amelle’s boyf, Freddie Fuller, and three pals of raping her after a night out.

She immediatley dumped him and stood by her sis. However, it later emerged in police investigations that Freddie was five miles away at his parents’ house on the phone to Amelle when the alleged incident took place in January 2007.

Amelle told The Sun: "I feel like I have had a nervous breakdown. I just shut off like a switch, my whole body.

"Sometimes I’d have panic attacks. I physically and mentally couldn’t handle it. I just wanted to go into a room and never leave.

"Being a Sugababe is the thing I’ve always wanted, I worked my whole life for this and I felt my own sister was trying to screw it up for me.

"Freddie and me feel like we are the shadow of the people we were.

"When it started I was suddenly thinking, ‘My boyfriend has raped my sister’ and ‘Is the person I’ve loved this whole, entire time lying to me and is a sicko weirdo?’

"I kept going back to her because I needed answers. But her story kept changing. It has blackened Freddie’s name so badly.

"I rang the lie detector guy. I said, ‘I want it all in writing, all recorded’, everything like that. He did two tests then called me. He said he was absolutely positive Freddie had done nothing wrong.

"I just hung up the phone and said to Sam that he had passed two lie detector tests. She turned around and said, ‘I think I must have been dreaming then, Amelle.’

"To turn around and say, ‘I must have been dreaming’, I need more than that. She was like my best mate, we’d do everything together. I feel I’ve lost a piece of me.

"People need to know the truth about what really happened and that Freddie is completely innocent. I still love her to bits, you know - she is still my sister. I know Freddie doesn’t like to hear it.

"I just can’t let the entire world think my boyfriend has done something he hasn’t.

"It did put a strain on our relationship for ages. We’ve only just started getting back to normal. We are starting again and living our lives properly at last."
