Paul Hollywood calls in the locksmiths after his break-up with Summer Monteys-Fullam

Paul Hollywood has called in the locksmiths at his £1million mansion in a bid to keep his ex Summer Monteys-Fullam out of his life for good following their bitter break-up.

Workers were seen changing over the keypads outside his home in Kent today, just a few days after the 53-year-old broke up with the former barmaid.

The former couple have since become embroiled in a public row after Hollywood accused Ms Monteys-Fullam of trying to sell stories to the press.

She then fired back by taking to social media to ‘like’ a selection of comments criticising her ex, before releasing a statement describing how she felt ‘betrayed’.

Yesterday, it was revealed the TV star attempted to cancel a charity skydive that Summer and her sister, 15, were due to take part in to get back £560 he donated.

It came after Hollywood fired the first salvo earlier on Monday, accusing the 24-year-old of selling stories to the press and hunting for fame.  

Ms Monteys-Fullam hit back in an Instagram post yesterday, insisting it was not her that leaked the story about the non-disclosure agreement. 

She also claimed that she ‘felt so betrayed by the NDA, particularly with how much pressure Paul and his lawyers put me under to sign it’ that she ‘confided in friends and showed them the document’.

Miss Monteys-Fullam, who met him while working in Hollywood’s local pub in Kent, added that she had been ‘thrown under the bus’ by her ex-boyfriend.

She said she pleased that the story had been published ‘to warn other women about the horrendous implications these documents have’.

Summer is back living with her mother Sabrina and earlier admitted that the split was ‘one of the hardest things I have ever done’ when a fan praised her ‘courage to walk away’ from their relationship.

She also thanked Instagram followers who said she had ‘dodged a bullet’ and ‘should get yourself an upgrade’ after dumping Hollywood, who is being divorced by his wife of 19 years Alexandra on the grounds of adultery.

One social media follower told her ‘Bl**dy hell babe!!! I bet you could write a book’ – and she replied: ‘Funnily enough, I’m actually really think[ing] about it after everything I have been through and am still going through’.

One fan wrote: ‘Finally, an intelligent female, seeing him for what he was, TROUBLE! and getting rid. Your [sic] worth a thousand of him, huge respect for you’. She said: ‘I’ve had so many messages of support like this and it warms my heart!’.

Yesterday, Paul posted a serious-looking selfie on Instagram and accused Summer of trying to ‘dupe’ the public, trying to cash-in on their split and attempting to ‘play games’.

He said: ‘Thank you for your messages I’ve been receiving it means a lot. My silence on any matters is not a sign of weakness or agreement of what’s been said, merely I prefer a quiet life away from my day job. 

‘Take what’s read with a pinch of salt and read between the lines. I know the public can’t be duped into believing what’s out there from a person making money selling stories and continuously courting the paps.

He added: ‘There’s always two sides to a story you’ve only heard one.. but alas I don’t play those games’.

One follower said: ‘As a mum of three daughters I’m so glad that you have had the courage to walk away. You have strong women around you now it’s time to shine.’

Summer replied: ‘I am so touched Sally by your kind message. That’s exactly right. This has been one of the hardest things I’ve ever done.’ 

Hollywood, 53, split from Summer, 24, as he prepares for a divorce hearing with his estranged wife Alexandra, who threw him out claiming he had an affair with the woman 29 years his junior.

In 2013 during a stint on The American Baking Competition he had a fling with fellow TV chef Marcela Valladolid, but he apologised and his wife took him back.

Tom Amlot, a solicitor for the Great British Bake Off judge, 53, revealed Paul’s dispute with Summer did involve a document gagging her from discussing their relationship.

He said: ‘I asked Summer to sign an NDA as is standard practice in order to protect Paul’s family and their private lives.

‘Summer insisted that she had no intention of selling any stories to the press and declined.

‘I think that her refusal to discuss or sign it caused concern, understandably, so it’s not entirely surprising that they have gone their separate ways.’

They were reportedly rowing over who would keep their £35 chicken named Karen in the aftermath of their bitter split. 

Last Wednesday, Summer Monteys-Fullam stormed out of the £1.2 million home in Kent that she shared with Paul Hollywood, 53, bringing an end to their 20-month relationship. 

The barmaid, 24, took to Instagram on Thursday to give her worried followers an update on the bird, reassuring them she was ‘safe and well’.

It appears Summer has won custody of the fowl as she shared a snap of Karen with her fellow chickens, Fredrica and Ciro. 

She wrote: ‘For those you that keep asking how my chickens are. Karen, Frederica and Ciro are all safe and well.’ 

Summer dumped the GBBO star after he asked her to sign a gagging order just days following his divorce from his estranged wife Alexandra.

Following their break-up, Hollywood agreed to give Summer custody of their rottweiler puppy and horses.

But he reportedly drew the line at their coop of chickens that he said must stay with him. 

Extravagant purchases made by Paul for Summer include a £100,000 Range Rover SVR, a £9,000 hot tub for her birthday and a £9,000 ring, some of which the bake off star has stopped Summer from accessing since the split.  

A source told The Sun on Sunday: ‘Summer told him that she didn’t want any of the gifts he’d given her, and that she was returning to take what was rightfully hers.

‘That’s when he lost it and started effing and blinding.’
