'Nothing will stop me from marrying him': Heidi Hepworth, 44, left husband Andy for Mamadou Jallow, 30, from Gambia

Heidi Hepworth, 44, left husband Andy(right) for 30-year-old Mamadou Jallow(left) from Gambia after a 'mid-life crisis'. But Mrs Hepworth said she does not regret her actions. Mrs Hepworth had never been abroad before, but abandoned her nine children to fly out to be with him in the Gambian capital, Banjul. Mr Hepworth, also 44, who says the ordeal has been difficult for their children, as young as six, is convinced his wife's lover has brainwashed her.
