The former Hear'Say singer warned: 'I have the receipts.'
Pals say there are also simmering tensions between Myleene and ex-Saturdays stars Rochelle Humes and Frankie Bridge, who all work at ITV.
Frankie yesterday sparked frenzied speculation by posting a cryptic video, saying somebody was 'dead to me'.
Rochelle and Frankie, both 36, worked with Quinn when he was the pop band's bodyguard, and pals say the two women are no longer close.
Following Myleene's infidelity claim this week, This Morning star Rochelle shared a cosy snap with Quinn, along with her hubby Marvin Humes — another of his ex-clients.

It was, pals say, 'game over' for Rochelle and Myleene.
They were all once close, with Loose Women hosts Myleene and Frankie attending Rochelle's hen do in 2012.
However, Rochelle and Frankie are said to have snubbed each other at this year's Wimbledon — with sources blaming friction at ITV.
Meanwhile, Frankie and Myleene have not appeared on Loose Women together since an 'awkward' episode last December.
Emotional Myleene Klass claims she caught ex cheating on her with another celebrity at a party
The pair are said to have history.

In 2013, soon after Myleene's divorce from Quinn, guests at the Glamour Women of the Year awards saw her storm over to Frankie after believing she had been blanked.
A source said: 'Myleene had not long divorced Graham and when she saw Frankie, she believed she had blanked her. Myleene seemed to take that as Frankie taking sides with Graham because of their working relationship.
'She was very open with guests that she wasn't happy about it and stormed over to have it out with Frankie. It was all very awkward and very public — it was the talk of the evening.'
Their apparently icy relationship is believed to have spilled on to Loose Women.
A TV insider told The Sun: 'The girls used to be really close, but it appears obvious their differences are making it hard for them to move past the friction.

'There was talk backstage at Loose Women that Frankie and Myleene said they weren't keen to appear on the same panel.
'But over Christmas, because of people being on holiday, they were drafted on to the same episode.
'It appeared to be awkward and they seemed to be interacting as little as possible.'
ITV bosses are also said to be keen to avoid run-ins between former childhood pals Rochelle and Frankie.
The source added: 'They don't seem to be getting on and that's making things more complicated for bookers who are keen to keep everyone happy.

'They've been competing since they were 12 when they joined S Club Juniors and now it appears they're competing for top jobs on ITV. While Rochelle rose in the ranks to present This Morning, her appearances have become few and far between since other famous faces have been brought in.
'Meanwhile Frankie has been a regular panellist on Loose Women since 2020 and has the ear of ITV producers who she's become close friends with. Now ITV bosses do everything they can to avoid awkward run-ins. If Rochelle is on This Morning and has to pass over to Frankie on Loose Women, it's kept as brief as possible.'
For Myleene, turning 47 this year appeared to mark a new beginning — with the Classic FM DJ saying she is 'no longer scared' to be disliked.
Her new carefree attitude led to her explosive interview on Paul Brunson's podcast when she recalled the moment she caught Quinn cheating with a celeb at her own birthday party.
Myleene would not name the female involved but claimed she built her career off a 'family brand'.

She said: 'I walked in on him with a famous person on my birthday on a balcony.
'It was in my house. It was my party. They weren't having sex, but they were unzipping each other.'
After whipping up a social media storm, Myleene yesterday posted a new Instagram story, insisting she would not be silenced.
Quoting the Bible, she wrote: 'And the truth will set you free' John 8.32,' adding 'and then some'.
She also posted: 'Wow. What a week it's been!

'All this to say, at 47, I've finally found my voice and it's clear, unapologetic and brutally honest. To those that fear its truth, you probably have reason to — I have receipts. To those that need to hear it, I've got you and I fully intend to continue using it to change the laws and legislation that neglect women and children in this country and around the world.'
Meanwhile, Frankie posted a TikTok video of her own.
She is seen drinking from a wine glass with Avril Lavigne's What the Hell playing, and writes: 'You're so quiet… thanks, you said something five years ago and I've just realised you're actually dead to me. Takes me a while, but once you're dead, you're dead. #capricorn.'

Those close to Frankie insisted the post was not aimed at Myleene and there was no issue between them.
But those on the inside at ITV disagree
Our source added: 'Myleene's outburst has really set the cat amongst the pigeons.
'It's the talk of the industry and now those awkward moments are making more sense.

'Both Myleene and Frankie are making pointed statements — and it's left everyone pointing fingers.'
Myleene has two kids, Ava and Hero, with Quinn who she divorced in 2013 just six months after marrying.
He had refused to sign a pre-nuptial agreement.
Rochelle has maintained a close friendship with Quinn, who was Marvin's usher at their wedding and was previously tour manager for his band JLS.
Rochelle was last pictured with Myleene in 2019.

Rochelle and Frankie still follow each other on Instagram, but there appears to have been no interaction between them since 2022.
They grew up in the spotlight together — from childhood pals who performed in S Club Juniors to businesswomen and mums with a combined fortune of £17million.
They spent seven successful years with The Saturdays, alongside fellow bandmates Mollie King, Una Healy and Vanessa White.
But when they were both guests recently in a hospitality suite at Wimbledon, they kept their distance.
An insider told The Sun: 'They sat on opposite sides of the suite and kept to themselves. It seemed a shame because having the two girls from The Saturdays together for a mini-reunion was exciting for everyone there.'

It seems to have dashed hopes of the band reuniting on stage.
Mum-of-two Frankie, married to ex-football ace Wayne Bridge, has said: 'I don't think there will be [a reunion]. Never say never. . . but I'd feel a bit old and a bit silly.'
Mum-of-three Rochelle has also been less than enthusiastic about the prospect, saying: 'We've not had a conversation about [a reunion]. I just can't imagine doing that again. My kids are my number one. Everything has to fit around them.'

John Leguizamo slams 'moron' Superman star Dean Cain for joining ICE
The actor and comedian called 'moron' Dean Cain out after the former Superman star announced he would be joining ICE John Leguizamo blasted Dean Cain, a vocal Trump supporter, for his decision to sign up with ICE, the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency. The esteemed actor and advocate, who moved from Colombia to the U.S. at the age of three, took to Instagram with a video lambasting the ex-Superman actor. Dean, known for his role as Superman in the '90s hit show Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman, has recently been critical of the latest Superman series for its progressive themes. He stirred controversy by announcing on social media his new affiliation with ICE, coinciding with the Department of Homeland Security's push for recruitment following a budget boost. In a fierce critique, the star of Romeo + Juliet mocked, "What kind of loser volunteers to be an ICE officer? What a moron. Dean Cain, your pronouns are 'has/been.'" This clash follows Dean's own video post on social media, where he encouraged others to enlist in ICE. "Hey everybody, Dean Cain here. For those who don't know, I am a sworn law enforcement officer, as well as being a filmmaker, and I felt it was important to join with our first responders to help secure the safety of all Americans, not just talk about it. So, I joined up," he declared, reports the Mirror US. "Since President Trump took office, ICE has arrested hundreds of thousands of criminals, including terrorists, rapists, murderers, pedophiles, MS-13 gang members, drug traffickers, you name it - very dangerous people who are no longer on the streets," he added. "So now I've spoken with some officials over at ICE, and I will be sworn in as an ICE agent ASAP." The initiative is part of a broader push by the Trump administration and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem to boost recruitment efforts. DHS has recently declared plans to scrap the age limit and reduce the minimum age requirement to 18, along with perks such as a $50,000 sign-on bonus and student loan forgiveness. CNN Newsnight's panelists chimed in, too. Commentator Scott Jennings remarked, "Having someone like that out touting it, talking about, 'Hey, this is a thing you can do for your government, this is a public service,' it's going to help them recruit and they have a bunch of people to recruit." Podcaster Van Lathan retorted, "Scott, it's not '95. Nobody gives a Sam Hill what Dean Cain does." He continued, "Dean ain't worked in a while. Dean needs the 50,000. That's what got Dean off the couch. Dean ain't worked in a while. Dean gonna take that money and buy some crypto. Dean need the 50. That's what Dean is on."
