Troubled Chelsea star John Terry on Thursday boarded a flight to Dubai, where his wife has taken refuge from a media storm over the former England captain's reported affair with an underwear model.

Terry was stripped of the national team's captaincy last week following newspaper reports of an extra-marital relationship with Vanessa Perroncel, the former partner of England teammate Wayne Bridge. The centreback has been granted a long weekend break by his club in order to facilitate what The Guardian described as his “date with the doghouse in Dubai.”

Toni Terry, the mother of his toddler twins, could claim a huge chunk of Terry's current fortune and future income if she decides to divorce the defender, who earns 170,000 pounds a week at Chelsea.
