She did 1,001 things absolutely perfectly, like a beautiful angel. She told me she loved me. I couldnt believe how strongly I felt about her.
People will say Im a silly old sod but I did fall in love with her. When we got married I felt like the luckiest man in the world.

He said: She changed from a beautiful angel to an absolute monster as soon as she was in the UK.
I must have been such an old fool to think that she could love me. She has taken a fortune from me and I want her deported.
I was so stupid to have believed she would have fallen in love with a 71-year-old man. Im twice her age.
She was just using me to get over into this country.
