Lauren Kilgariff, 29, was with husband, Shaun, 31, for four years. To others, he appeared to be the perfect partner, but behind closed doors, he was a bully. He'd drink heavily and fly into rages. When the couple married last year, it was a dream wedding, but it was all for show. Back home, Shaun continued to drink and when Lauren finally had enough, he flipped and head-butted her unconscious leaving her scarred for life. He only received an 18 -month suspended sentence in March 2024 for ABH at North Staffordshire Justice Centre.
