A student who shared pictures of herself apparently in bed with bare-chested Usain Bolt has said she is “dying of shame”.

Jady Duarte shared the snaps of herself appearing to cuddle and kiss the Olympic champion on Whatsapp.

She had allegedly met the sprinting superstar him at All In, a club in the Barra de Tijuca suburb of Rio, as he celebrated his 'treble treble' Olympic gold medal haul and his 30th birthday.

Pictures of the pair, including one which appears to show Bolt kissing the young woman on the cheek, were shared worldwide despite her claiming to have only sent them to “girlfriends” over the online messaging app.

Speaking to Brazlian newspaper Extra, Miss Duarte said she “never wanted to be famous” and was “dying of shame”.

She added: “It's very negative. I never wanted to be famous, I'm dying of shame.”

The student then went on to describe her night with the Olympic megastar – who reportedly has a long-term girlfriend – as “normal”.

She claimed Bolt sent a security guard over to her but insisted she “didn’t know” who her suitor was.

She said: “He sent a security guard to call me over. We spoke quickly.

“But at that moment I didn't know it was him, because there were many Jamaicans who looked similar.”

Bolt is believed to be in a two-year relationship with fellow Jamaican national 26-year-old Kasi Bennett.

According to MailOnline, the athlete’s sister Christine Bolt-Hylton believed the pair were due to get engaged on his return from the Olympic Games.

Miss Bennett tweeted to say she was “logging off” Twitter after the pictures emerged.

"Doing something I'm pretty sure I've made fun of people for doing... But here goes : I'm tapped out. Logging off," she wrote.

She had previously shared birthday wishes to Bolt and reweeted pictures of her beau wearing his medals.

Miss Duarte took to Facebook to tell followers she was “feeling angry” following the scandal.

She posted what appeared to be song lyrics in Brazilian calling on fans to “stop drama”.

In a second post she added that she had “never had Twitter”.

Bolt is believed to have left Rio a day early, missing out on last night’s closing ceremony.
