In his new e-book, titled Who am I?, Cipriani remembers plenty of run-ins he had with Jones, who coached England from 2015 by 2022.
Cipriani, who made the final of his 16 Test appearances for England in 2018, states that Jones took an uncomfortable curiosity in his private life, based on The Sun.
Cipriani, 35, wrote that Jones notably quizzed “like a horny teenager” over his intercourse life with Kirsty Gallacher, a Scottish tv presenter.
The fly half — who had simply damaged up with the presenter — says he was at a coaching camp in 2016 when he was shocked to be requested: “Haven’t you shagged her? What’s she like?”
The Englishman additionally remembers how Jones singled him out at a workforce dinner in 2016 and stored “pecking” about his bed room secrets and techniques with the glamorous Scottish TV presenter.
Jones is now teaching Australia and main them at this month’s Rugby World Cup in France.
Cipriani struggled to get chosen after Jones grew to become head coach in 2015.
But Jones has slammed Cipriani’s claims, labelling them “a complete fabrication”.
“We didn’t have a close relationship, so I’m hardly going to engage in a conversation like that with him,” Jones informed the Daily Mail.
“To be quite frank, it’s a complete fabrication. We didn’t select him. When players don’t get selected, they always have an axe to grind. We know that.
“He’s selling a book, so nothing surprises me when players want to sell books. It’s absurd. It’s almost too absurd to talk about.
“I think it’s very sad for him that he feels he has to make something up to sell his book.”
“It’s just f***ing nonsense,” Jones added.
“If anyone is stupid enough to pay attention to it then good luck to them.
“That’s hardly the sort of language I would use. It’s not how I speak to players. In all the years I’ve coached, there would be very few conversations like that with players.
“It’s not to say I haven’t had a conversation like that, but there would have been very few – and certainly not with Cipriani.
“I’ve learnt to keep an appropriate distance. You don’t coach for the amount of time that I’ve coached without keeping the appropriate distance.
“I get criticised for being too hard – now someone is trying to make out that I’m too familiar with the players. Work out what you want me to be.”
Cipriani took to X, previously often known as Twitter, to handle the response to extracts from his e-book detailing his love life.
“The reaction … has come in many forms from love, support, hate, anger, and so on,” Cipriani wrote.
“Remember that the extracts are put into context through the entirety of the book. Taken out and separated create a story.
“Read as a whole, you’ll see there is nothing but love. No ill feeling toward any individual, just sharing the truth of my experience within a sport which has very rigid ‘leadership’ and the media who create narratives for a living.”
