Muslim: Celebrity Big Brother star Chloe Khan studied to convert to Islam, it has been revealed
And it was revealed that she also changed her name to Safia - an Islamic name meaning 'pure'.
However, Chloe's representatives denied she had converted fully.
The
spokesperson said: 'Chloe didn't convert to Islam. She did a short
course on it to better understand the religion but that was it.
'The reason she changed her name to Safia wasn't anything to do with religion.
'It was because she loves sapphire diamonds, she created a spin on that.'
It was reported earlier this week that Chloe's estranged husband Mohammad Imran Khan is a convicted killer.
It
has been claimed Khan was sentenced to four years imprisonment in 2013
after ‘killing a cyclist during an illegal street race’.
A
25-year-old man of the same name was jailed after killing Latvian
Vitalijs Rozenbergs, 22, when he was struck by a blue Audi RS3 in
Bradford.
