WIDOW AWARDED £300K AFTER EX CONNED HER OUT OF THOUSANDS
A widow whose love rat ex-boyfriend left her homeless has had the last laugh after a judge ordered her ex to pay back £300,000.

The mother-of two met Martin, a professional gambler, on a blind date in March 2005, and the couple quickly became an item.
