BULLY HUBBY LEFT ME SCARRED FOR LIFE AFTER HEAD-BUTTING ME IN THE EYE FOLLOWING DREAM WEDDING

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.
