years of their particular 18-year relationship were a continuing, nerve-twanging
battle to prevent the girl volatile husband from flying into a horrifying rage plus battering the girlverbally and physically.
For 3 years given that they divorced, Soft sand has kept to their
agreement never to talk about their particular life with each other. But Freddie has broken
that agreement - worrying that he cannot understand why Sandy
took a great injunction out there against him or her, and exactly why their three children
avoid contact him.
Now she gets had sufficient. Speaking out for the first time, she says:
"I don't would like people pondering I threw him out for no reason
after practically 20 years. This wasn't that way. "
Being placed in the beautiful pounds 350, 1000 Berkshire home she has
made for herself plus the kids, Exotic recalled the girl and Freddie's
last weekend break together. At that moment she understood she didn't want to take
any more.
They were already lawfully separated, and Freddie - who previous week
was seen on TV like a vicious drug baron - drove upwards and hammered on the
door of the pounds one 5 mil mansion close to Windsor in 3am. This had
already been the routine for weeks while these people discussed details of the divorce
he had called for so he could be with his brand new love, Trudy Coleman.
He Had confessed to a different affair two years earlier, yet this time
Sandy has been determined there was clearly no returning.
"We agreed everything concerning the finances plus the house in addition to so
on, and it was all amicable, " she says. "But whenever he felt
like it, this individual turned up from three or four each morning, banging on the
door, insisting I get up.
"He would go upon for hours plus hours. One minute he'd be
fine, as well as the next however be like a madman. That night, he was
ranting and raving, and am was crying.
"I keep in mind looking within the mirror in addition to thinking I looked like
nothing on earth. I had simply no make-up, my eyes were inflamed. I didn't
recognise myself.
"He forced off inside the family Shogun, leaving me personally with no car to
make children to school. Then he went back and started out again.
"I remember him saying: `Look toward you. You are so ugly. Exactly what on
planet was I doing with you all these many years? You used to be so beautiful,
and today you are ugly'.
"He hunted down me upper level, hitting me and trying to get my rings
off, and I fought back. I ran downstairs and followed me, saying he
would burn up the house lower or get a contract in order to have me killed.
"I just wanted to run, but We phoned the solicitor, who said I
had to stay. I thought: `You don't know just what you're saying. If
I get out of this specific alive it can be a miracle'.
"Freddie visited bed for a couple of hours, and am sat in a
room. I sensed absolutely damaged in every approach. Yet I had formed to get these
children away from home and start again. Then he was really give me
some more. It had been like someone sticking the knife inside you, putting it in
and tugging it out repeatedly.
"Late within the Sunday mid-day, he phoned his sweetheart in
front of me, saying: `Yes, I've offered her typically the keys towards the house and
it's just about all finished. Help you later'.
"It was just like something snapped inside myself - the last
humiliation. All of a sudden, I wasn't frightened associated with him any more. I said:
`This is the last moment you ever see or speak to me'.
"I obtained a blade from the kitchen area and sat in a tiny room with
it by my side, thinking: `If he arrives near me personally, I will kill him.
He's never going to come near myself ever again'. "
Freddie raged round the home, tearing upwards family pictures and jumping
on them. He or she ripped straight down all the gold discs in addition to photos of him meeting
royalty and filled a number of suitcases ready winter clothes. Then he
left.
Afraid he would go back, Sandy sent her eldest daughter, Donna,
right now 21, upstairs. "Suddenly she screamed: `Mum, come and
look'. He previously torn each of the photos in the children's
christenings in parts and spread them on to the floor.
"We found a long cigarette burn that i was convinced meant he
really had been trying to burn the house lower. "
While we were holding separated, Freddie had arrive around once more in the
middle of the night time. Sandy claims: "He held going on regarding finances
and settlements. He kept asking me to go to bed together with him and i also kept
saying No .
After hours of being browbeaten and verbally bullied, We suddenly
found myself saying: `OK after that, let's go to bed'. We went
upstairs, and I lay down on the bed motionless, looking at the ceiling.
"He stated: `What are you currently playing at? '. I told your pet that he
wanted this specific, not me, and to relate with it. I actually didn't also think of
England. I simply thought that with any luck , he would move soon and provide me some
peace.
"It was all over within a short while and Freddie became
angry. He shouted: `That was your worst **** I've ever endured in my
life'. I said: `It was also the last one you will ever possess with
me'. And I meant it. "
Freddie, now fifty four, had been thrilling when Sandy's stunning legs
won the woman a place inside the chorus line of his show on Blackpool pier in
1975. His first relationship to Betty was all but over and the particular pair fell
madly in love.
These were married within just months and spent the very first year appearing
in the exact same show plus travelling together. But after she got Donna, Sandy
couldn't continually be by his / her side and things started to go wrong.
The very first violence emerged as they have been having a line in the kitchen.
"He put a seat at myself and broke my arm, " states.
"Afterwards he was very contrite, took me to clinic,
couldn't do adequate for me.
"Now after which, out of the blue, he or she lost his / her temper in addition to lashed
away. I may appear to be an idiot to have put up with it. Yet I held responsible
pressure of work and the Valium he required throughout the marriage.
"He was so apologetic and swore it would never ever happen once more.
Once you love someone, you believe all of them and we would make it up in
bed.
"And I was involved for him or her as you would be for a child - I
didn't consider he could care for himself.
I lived our whole life about Freddie. We never desired another man. I
just wanted my husband plus my youngsters and to be happy.
"But looking back again, it seems like I had a big boulder of love
for him and tiny bits had been chipped aside each time, until in the end
there was absolutely nothing left. "
Donna, son Jody, now eighteen, and young daughter Stacey, 10, would try
to guess Freddie's mood from the sound associated with his vehicle. If this individual arrived in a
screech associated with tyres, these people disappeared for their bedrooms.
"I have never known anyone with this kind of diamond engagement rings power above people, "
says Sandy. "When he came house, the house had been full of tension.
However switch moods in a twinkling. You'd be having a laugh and joking
- plus suddenly he'd explode into this trend and the entire day was
destroyed. "
Once, this individual chased Sandy up to the master bedroom and smacked her hard on the
face, splitting her lip. Another time, this individual stubbed the cigarette on her
leg after a row.
Sandy, Jody and Donna found it tough to watch Freddie's debut
like a dramatic professional on TV last week in the thriller Supply In addition to Demand.
"We couldn't bear seeing all of it the way by means of, "
says Sandy. "He played fault the evil villain so
authentically, that brought a lot of memories of seeing him or her like that in
real life".
She never ever told a new soul exactly what her existence was like behind the door of
their home. Now her friends marvel at exactly how well she acted, always
appearing immaculate and grinning.
She continue to insists: "Until that previous weekend I still cherished him
: even if I was going forward with the breakup because I couldn't
live with him. Now I stand up regarding myself and answer him back.
"He said he or she couldn't live with me today because I am a
different person. I used to be somebody I believed he wanted for eighteen years, but
that was no good, so now I am me.
"And I've never ever been happier. "

It was an African grey called Later on which Soft sand had bought him.
"It accustomed to growl from him plus Freddie got frustrated, inches she
states. "One day, he received really annoyed and started giving it little

when a dog ran upward and it flew away. That sat inside a tree and I tried regarding a
few days to entice it straight down, but eventually it disappeared.
"We still have one parrot called Fred which he or she taught to.
The idea really spooks me in the night in order to speaks with his
voice. Once, after the divorce, I had been lying within the bath when suddenly I
heard Freddie's voice. It was saying something like: `Here's
Freddie. Good young man, Freddie. ' "I stopped - pondering to me personally:
`How on earth provides he found a key to the house? '. Then I realised
it was the particular blooming parrot! "

usually saying to me in stores: `Have you have any hamsters in your
basket? '. People kept giving us all hamsters. Freddie posed regarding a
picture once along with one in the shoulder also it bit him or her on the nasal area. "
