Arthur was sentenced to 20 years in prison for his actions following a trial at Wood Green Crown Court.

As Arthur’s trial took place, Ferne, who was pregnant at the time with their child, released a statement and spoke on This Morning to confirm she was expecting his child but that they were no longer together.

She said: “This isn’t how I imagined my first pregnancy to be, but this isn’t about me…my main concern and priority is the baby.”
