FORMER Scotland star Charlie Mulgrew has opened up on his trauma after Michelle Mone accused him of child neglect.
The disgraced ex-Tory peer - now Lady Mone called police and ambulance services when she saw Mulgrew's toddler son in the back of a car in a Costco cash and carry car park in December 2010.
Police charged the footballer, who played for Celtic at the time, but prosecutors dropped the case a few weeks later after deciding there was insufficient evidence of criminality.
Mulgrew told the latest edition of the Let Me Be Frank podcast, with former Celt Frank McAvennie, that he was left "fuming" at the furore created by Mone.
But he claims he bore "no ill feelings" towards the controversial tycoon, whose assets have been frozen amid an investigation into suspected wrongdoing in major PPE contracts along with her husband Doug Barrowman during the pandemic.
Mulgrew spoke out just weeks after it emerged the then two-year-old boy, Joshua, has himself signed a professional contract with Celtic at 16.
He told podcast host Simon Houston: "It was mad. It was a week before Christmas, we drove to Costco.
"The backstory-my wife had my son, who's now, funny enough, full time at Celtic. He's just went full time in the summer there. She'd been out with him during the day, he was tired, we had people coming to us for Christmas.
"We went to Costco and as we arrived, he fell asleep in the car.
"So I was like, 'Do we take him in here?' "I just ended up running in and out.
