Keli Lane Secret Weddin Plans Revealed She's Making Big Plans From Behind Bars

She's Making big plans from behind bars.

Sentenced to a maximum of 18 years for the murder of her newborn daughter Tegan, champion water polo player Keli Lane has always protested her innocence.

It was a case that gripped Australia, but now the convicted murderer – who is still serving time in jail – is ready to start over … with a former flame.

A source reveals to New Idea that Keli has reunited with her ex-boyfriend Patrick Cogan – the man who stood by her through the trial in 2010 – and the pair are believed to be preparing for the wedding of her dreams.

Keli is also said to be ready to pick up her role as a mum to the teenage daughter she left behind when she went to jail.

“She does want to marry Patrick,” says a friend of the couple. “In an ideal situation, she’ll be home by Christmas and they can finally be together making up for all the lost time.”

Keli’s new hopes of finally saying ‘I do’ come after it was revealed that crucial new evidence has been uncovered, prompting urgent calls for a pardon – which means Keli may be home sooner than expected.

Patrick and Keli have a long history together, having dated as teenagers and then later reconnecting when her life was thrown into the spotlight during the investigation.
