| Wedded bliss: Vicki and Richard on their wedding day at Gretna Green in Scotland in 2006 |
But now she has had the leisure to
reflect on the enormity of his duplicity she wonders whether, in fact, there is
an even more convoluted web of lies to be untangled.
It is now two years since Vicki
learned that Dr Robert Marchmont, the man she had married in Scotland in 2006,
was not, in the eyes of the law, actually her husband at all.
In fact he was a bigamist and their
marriage was a sham: he had not divorced his first wife, chemistry teacher
Clare - the mother of his two children - when he and Vicki made their wedding
vows. Clare had refused to get a divorce and the pair had separated.
Marchmont's audacity went further
because he committed the same crime twice.
After his marriage to Vicki was
exposed as fraudulent and finally annulled in September 2013 - but before he
was officially divorced from Clare - he was married bigamously for a second
time, to pharmaceutical rep Lesley Kenneally, 61, his third and current wife.
Vicki, 45, marketing manager for a
chemical company, who lives in Whitley Bay, Tyne and Wear, reflects: 'I was
absolutely stunned when I realised the scale of Bob's deceit. I never thought
he was capable of breaking the law.'
'He'd never even park on yellow
lines. And I felt so stupid that I'd been taken in by him. I'm supposed to be
intelligent. This sort of thing doesn't happen to people like us, only on the
Jeremy Kyle show. I felt embarrassed.
