In reports published by The Sun, Danniella was travelling back from an appearance on Big Brother’s Bit On The Side when the incident occurred in the back of a chauffeur driven car.
The driver allegedly had to ask the ‘frisky’ couple to stop.
The source said: "Danniella was being driven home in a car paid for by Channel 5 after appearing on Big Brother ’s Bit on the Side where she’d insisted on bringing her young boyfriend George.
"The Simpsons driver reported Danniella was performing a sex act on her boyfriend in the back of the car.
They added that the driver had to then intervene with the couple to get them to stop: "The driver asked her to stop or he was going to pull over and chuck her out once he was off the M25.
"She stopped her performance but everyone at [Simpsons] was completely stunned."
However, Daniella has now taken to Twitter to ferociously deny the incident, labelling the reports as ‘bullying’.
She tweeted Sun Online columnist Dan Wootton: "Your a bully nothing more! After last nights topic of the show u think ur story has a tread of truth! [sic]"
The EastEnders actress then retweeted various messages of support from her fans.
Danniella then tweeted this morning to say she would be signing a petition, along with Kerry Katona, to get Dan Wootton fired from The Sun, as she's "sick of [Dan] slating [her]" and her children.
This news comes at a bit of an awkward time for Daniella, as her EastEnders alter ego Sam Mitchell is due to dramtically return to the soap tonight ahead of Peggy Mitchell’s funeral.
Let’s hope this doesn’t overshadow all her hard work!
