TRIPLE AMPUTEE SOLDIER FINDS LOVE WITH BLONDE BOMBSHELL RALLY DRIVER
A soldier who lost both legs and an arm in Afghanistan has found love with a blonde bombshell he met through his newfound passion for rally driving. Tom Neathway, 29, met stunning Rachael Patterson while raising funds for the Dakar Rally which he hopes to take on in the new year with a team of fellow injured servicemen. Tom says he was "dumbstruck" by the 24-year-old promo girl and rally driver from Bristol after she offered to shake some buckets for the Race 2 Recovery team's forthcoming mammoth challenge in August. Mum Julie Tuckley, 37, from Walsall, West Mids., said: "Tommy has been through more in his short time on this earth than anyone can imagine, but he's still a smiling, happy little boy. "Every little thing he does makes me proud to be his mum. He never once stopped fighting, all the doctors in hospital called him 'the miracle boy'.
