Matteo Marzotto: I was joking when I said Naomi Campbell hit me

Fashion tycoon insists he's still good friends with model

Celebrity hair: Naomi Campbell gets a fringe
Naomi Campbell dated Matteo Marzotto for 8 months

Naomi Campbell's ex has withdrawn comments he made on Italian TV about how she allegedly abused him during their 8-month relationship.

'You've got to be able to take her hits,' Matteo Marzotto told the Victor Victoria Show last week. 'She dealt me some terrible punches.'

But now Matteo insists he was joking. 

'Naomi never hit me or was violent in anyway,' reads a statement. 'We are very good friends and talk all the time.'

Naomi, 38, who split from Matteo in 2004, is dating Russian billionaire Vladimir Doronin.
