Karen’s hunt for cheapo love life

-

LONELY Karen Matthews is looking for love on dating site Tinder but is so skint she must log on to free wi-fi spots to check out the talent.

She sits huddled over her phone in McDonald’s, supermarke­ts and shopping centres.

The mum-of-seven, who was jailed for faking the kidnap of her daughter Shannon, also browses profiles on other free sites like Plenty of Fish and even checks out fellas on no-strings sex web page Fab Swingers.

Last night a source said Matthews, 41, had only enjoyed two short-lived flings since being released from prison in 2012.

The insider revealed: “She’s desperate to hook herself a fella. Before she was arrested there was rarely a time when she wasn’t in a relationsh­ip of some kind, however dysfunctio­nal.

“She’s seen a couple of fellas very briefly over the last few years but they were a lot older than her and a bit down-market – even for Karen.”

Matthews has moved from her home in Dewsbury, West Yorks, to the south of England.
