DEAR DEIDRE: I MARRIED a complete monster. I discovered his ugly secrets only after we got hitched. He’s violent and my wedding ring was paid for with money he stole from an old man.
I’m a woman of 32 and he’s 40. We married six months after we met.

Two months later, he went to the pub after work, and when he got home his dinner was ruined.
So he punched me.
I ran to my sister’s then the police. Under Clare’s Law, I learned he had been done for assault before.
I also discovered he had a conviction for fraud and I think he ripped off an old man for thousands. I reckon he used that cash to pay for our wedding.
