Madge even posted a snap of herself straddling the undefeated challenger, with the caption, ‘I had to sit somewhere’.
Riakporhe said: “We met at a fashion event with some friends. She could be ringside, maybe she could.”
WBO champ Billam-Smith, making the second defence of his crown, said: “I wouldn’t be doing that sort of thing during a training camp.
“But I won’t know if it has had any effect on Richard until we are in the ring.”
CBS, 33, added: “I cannot let myself think that he has been anything less than totally dedicated and is perfectly prepared.
“He must take the lifestyle seriously enough, he always looks in incredible shape.”
Crystal Palace fan Riakporhe, 34, wants to join the ranks of Eagles legends on Saturday.
He said: “When I walk out I will be thinking about Ian Wright and what he did for the club.

“Mark Bright as well — we have grown very close as he is still at the club every week. Those two put Palace on the map.”
But his main focus will be making his own history on the turf of his heroes.
