ON CARIBBEAN WEDDING TRIP
returning home. “My family said C a f f rey only wanted a life in the UK,” she says. “I ignored them and I ran myself into the ground working to send money to him.
“He told me his family were penniless and the hotel kept messing up his wages – I fell for it hook, line and sinker.”

visa, Louise says she paid for his flight to the UK. “I even paid for him to visit the Etihad stadium as he was such a big Manchester City fan,” Louise says. “But he was really off with me. He barely wanted to touch me but kept telling me he wanted to get married before the end of the year.” Things began to unravel when Louise says she received an angry Facebook message from an American woman. “I got the shock of my life,” she says. “She claimed she’d miscarried his child too. Caffrey told me it had all been a mistake and begged for me back.” It was only a few weeks later in Jamaica that she discovered he had also been seeing a Canadian girl. “I started throwing things at him,” she says. “I was distraught. He tried to win me back but this time his words were useless. I flew back to the UK a broken woman.”
She claims she had spent so much money on Caffrey she was unable to afford her rent. She had to move in with her brother, far from where she’d been living, so had to give up her job – and now, unable to pay her debts, she fears bankruptcy.
She says: “I can never forgive Caffrey. He still has his happy life in Jamaica and I’ve got absolutely nothing.”
Caffrey was not available for comment, but Paul said: “What happened ruined my life. I’d been married before I met Louise, but she is the first person I felt real love for. I could see what Caffrey was doing as soon as we met him. I had an inkling he’d try to come between us.
“But when I found out about the cheating, it was earth-shattering.
“We’d planned marriage and a life together, and I can’t believe this happened on our dream holiday. Nothing I could say could make Louise see sense. It was a disaster waiting to happen because she was living a life she couldn’t afford.
“We stayed in touch and she told me when she discovered he’d been cheating. I still care about her, so I was gutted for her. Will we get back together? I’m not sure. It’s all still very raw. One thing is for sure though – I will always love Louise.”
