A FORMER Michael Jackson impersonator and former GMTV Dad of the Year has spoken of his 'shame', after he pleaded guilty to assaulting his wife. In an exclusive interview Keith Preddie has told of his regret and admits he fears a spell in jail, for attacking wife Emma at the family home in Coulsdon, following a row about Christmas presents. The 44-year-old has recorded the below video and also agreed to a full interview in tomorrow's Advertiser, in which he seeks to explain his actions. He said: "I am ashamed and have let myself down as I am not violent man. "I loved my estranged wife but she was draining the life out of me, and what happened that night was not me, it was not what I'm about, it was not the person I am. "I am no way trying to wriggle out of what I did and to this day feel ashamed, upset and know that I will never forget what happened until the day I die." Mr Preddie, who now lives in South Norwood, has also spoken of how his anguish was masked by his persona as Croydon's leading impersonator of the king of pop. He added: "Everyone thought I was this bubbly happy chappy, that I was the shamone master, but inside I was hurting."
