Bigamist glamour model walks free

Bigamist walks free

A former glamour model has walked free from court despite admitting bigamy and being described as a 'manipulative woman' by a judge.

Emily Horne, 40, was described by the judge as a 'manipulative woman' who had 'undermined the institution of marriage'.

But he decided not to jail her because she had made progress in the last six months since being prescribed with medication for a personality disorder.

Speaking outside Manchester's Minshull Street Crown Court, Horne, who has been given a 10-month suspended sentence, said: 'I am feeling great. I have been vindicated.'

Horne only told her 'husband' Ashley Baker she was already married as they set off on their honeymoon. She changed her name on marriage certificates to avoid detection.
