Summary

What started as a 20 year love affair turned into a web of lies and deception so wild it’s hard to believe. From fake careers to serial cheating, Harry still believed in her love enough to propose, only to be told she was battling stage four cancer. Standing by her side, he hoped to make it to their wedding day, never realizing the shocking truth beneath it all. This case isn’t just messy romance, it’s betrayal, fraud, and a twisted love story straight out of a crime thriller. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
