► A 50-year-old model targeted recently divorced men on dating sites, "squeezing every last penny from one victim before moving on to the next" in a "sophisticated romance fraud".
Gemma Kingsley was today jailed at Swindon Crown Court for seven years and seven months having earlier admitted to more than a dozen charges of theft and fraud spanning seven years.
Kingsley’s victims even included her own mother’s carer.
