Sol Campbell's former girlfriend, Janet Tyler, has claimed that the footballer not seen their son for six years because he is prejudiced.

Tyler spoke to the BBC Radio after the 39-year-old former player mentioned in his new book that he might not see son Joseph for 10 to 20 years, reports the Mirror.

She said that even though Campbell talks about racial discrimination, she thinks he practices prejudice every day because he's decided which two children are worthy of his love and time, and he has another child which isn't, and that according to her is the worst kind of prejudice.

In response to her comments, Campbell said that the book didn't go into much detail and it was only one line, and it is up to Tyler if she wants to put something on the radio and ring them up and talk to them over the phone.

Tyler, a teacher also mentioned that Campbell was "angry" and "scared" when she had told him she was expecting and had to take test to prove that the child was his.
