A FORMER England rugby star was framed for raping a teen girl by a lying OnlyFans model who calls herself “The Justified Hooker”.
Marland Yarde, 32, was sacked by his rugby union club and left the UK after Sandra Ntonya launched a stalking campaign against him.
He was arrested and quizzed by cops after the obsessed 44-year-old falsely claimed he had assaulted a teenage girl.
Even when he was exonerated, Ntonya continued to spread the cruel lies – branding Yarde a “rapist” on social media.
Ntonya, who claims to have slept with a string of Premier League footballers, admitted stalking the star for 14 months.
She avoided a jail term and was instead handed a 20 month sentence suspended for two years.
Manchester Crown Court was told Yarde met Ntonya, who has written a book about her ‘sexploits’ called ‘Confessions of a Justified Hooker’, in 2021.
He began using her services as a sex worker after splitting from his girlfriend but he maintains they did not sleep together.
The rape claim came in January 2022 after Yarde stayed at Ntonya’s home in Manchester.
He had given a teen girl present a hoodie to wear and she went to sleep in a spare room.
But the following morning, Ntonya tried to sell the story before phoning 999 and claimed Yarde had raped the girl.
He was arrested and grilled by police for 15 hours before eventually being released under investigation.
It was a further six months before he was told he would face no further action.
In the meantime, Ntonya continued her campaign against the player – sharing posts online and claiming she was “excited” at his arrest.
She also carried on posting even after Yarde was cleared – tagging Greater Manchester Police while asking: “Why o Why?”
Ntonya even targeted Yarde’s rival team, Bath Rugby Club, writing: “There’s an unconvicted rapist playing for your opponents. Terrifying.”
Yarde was suspended by club Sale Sharks before his contract was terminated – leaving his career in England in tatters.
The wing, who has 13 caps for England, is now playing for French team Bayonne but insisted his partner and child stay in the UK.
Describing the ordeal, prosecutor Jack Troup said: ”Mr Yarde is a well known rugby union player and he explains the impact of those repeated social media posts on him.
“His professional contract with the club was terminated resulting in a loss of employment for a time.
“He reports his mental health suffering and seeking the assistance of a psychiatrist. He reports contemplating suicide as a result of being repeatedly referred to as a rapist.
“He left the country and went to play rugby in France. As a result he had to terminate his relationship with a number of charities in England as it was not feasible to support them.’
“It had an impact on his family life. He had to live in a separate country to his daughter. He decided not to relocate her to France but for her to remain with her mother.
“That caused him significant difficulties.”
As well as a suspended jail term, Ntonya was ordered to complete 100 hours of unpaid work, a six months mental health treatment and 15 rehabilitation activity days.
The mum was also banned from contacting Yarde under the terms of an indefinite restraining order.
Sentencing, Judge John Potter said he was taking into account the fact Ntonya was full-time carer to a son who has ”very significant health difficulties”.
He added: “The behaviour by you towards Mr Yarde was highly abusive and damaging.
“The behaviour also portrays you as attention seeking and narcissistic. The truth is that you were prepared to exploit the predicament of another for your own gain.
“Others close to Mr Yarde have also been targeted for abuse as a result of their association with him as a consequence of how you portrayed him online.
“He has been significantly affected by the psychological harm that he has suffered due your behavior.”
Yarde, who has also played for London Irish and Harlequins, won 13 caps for England between 2013 and 2017.
He moved to French club Bayonne in December 2022.
