‘My boyfriend was sleeping with another woman while I was in labour'

Weaving my way through the packed nightclub, I headed for the bar. A man next to me looked me up and down. “Your eyebrows are too big,” he said. “What a cheek!” I thought, fuming. But before I could open my mouth to tell him I was going for a Cara Delevingne look, he walked off.

I forgot all about him until I spotted a tall, good-looking guy a couple of weeks later in the same club. It took a moment before I realised who he was.

He marched over, but before I could say a word he grinned. “I’m Steven and you’re staying with me,” he said with a wink. I just melted and found myself saying, “OK then.”

Steven Lee and I started chatting and it turned out he wasn’t rude. He was really funny.

Before long we were a couple, even though at 27 he was 10 years older than me. We set up home together and life was great, until two months later I started to feel unwell and exhausted all the time.

“Maybe you’re pregnant,” my mum Nicola, 53, said. A test confirmed it. I was in absolute shock, but Steven was excited. He pampered me while I was pregnant and was with me as I went into labour. But at the hospital things started to go wrong. As doctors and nurses rushed around me, I passed out.

When I came round, Steven was next to me holding our baby boy in his arms. He looked terrified. “You almost died,” he said. “We were so scared.” He told me how I’d haemorrhaged during the birth and needed four blood transfusions to save my life.
