The Brit, who appeared on US reality series Prison Brides, met her husband Curtis back in 2021, through a prisoner pen pal service.
Emma became interested in Curtis' story, as he was serving seven years in prison for carjacking, which she thought was a lengthy sentence given that in the UK, the maximum jail term for this kind of crime is two years.
However, romance soon blossomed between the pair, and they began to regularly chat on the phone.
After eight months, Emma jetted off the US to finally meet her man, and set herself boundaries, such as to not send Curtis any money.
As their relationship continued to grow, Emma became increasingly proud of Curt, and decided to share their relationship on the Prison Brides' TV show.
"Curt could not read or write when he went to prison, and now he's got a Master's degree in business," she told the Tamron Hall show.
"I'm not proud of his situation, but I'm extremely proud of the man he's become."
Keen to make their relationship work, Emma moved across the Atlantic to be with Curt, and the couple even tied the knot behind bars.
After four long years of waiting, Curt was finally released from prison, and Emma was ecstatic to start their life together.
However, just weeks after being released, her husband cheated on her with another woman, whom he got pregnant.
I'm a prison wife
Emma was bowled over by the betrayal and was even more shocked when her husband got sent straight back to prison again after just six months.
The dark-haired beauty, who got her beau's name tattooed on her hand said that she regrets a lot of her life decisions, and dated the person she thought she deserved.
However, she has not let the traumatic experience get to her, and has now relocated back to the UK to start a new life.
"I'm living life for me and it feels so good," she said in a recent TikTok video.

Persona 4 remake, Keeper, High On Life 2 and the best of Xbox Games Showcase
Persona 4 Revival is real! (YouTube) Microsoft's Xbox Games Showcase has revealed a host of new multiformat games, including Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy, Super Meat Boy 3D, and Grounded 2. The June Xbox Games Showcase has been on a roll since its inception, repeatedly showing up Sony's attempts to fill the E3 gap. Even though this year is a relatively quiet one for Xbox, it was still generally more interesting than the PlayStation State of Play last week. It's still unclear if there'll be a Nintendo Direct this month, given the Switch 2 has only just launched, but there was no mention of the new console at Microsoft's event, especially when it came to Call Of Duty: Black Ops 7. Arguably the biggest reveal of the show (despite the fact it had been leaked previously) was the two new ROG Xbox Ally portable devices, but there was also plenty of other traditional news, as you can see from this bountiful selection of trailers below. The format of the Xbox Games Showcase has always been the same, with an hour or so of various different first and third party titles, followed by a 30 minute showcase of a specific game. Previously that's been Starfield and Black Ops 6, but this year it was The Outer Worlds 2, followed by a bonus 30 minutes on the newly revealed Grounded 2 – also by Obsididan Entertainment. Oh, and before you ask, Hollow Knight: Silksong was not featured, although Xbox exec Sarah Bond did mention in passing that it was still coming out this year. Although we'll believe that when we see it. Expert, exclusive gaming analysis Sign up to the GameCentral newsletter for a unique take on the week in gaming, alongside the latest reviews and more. Delivered to your inbox every Saturday morning. High On Life 2 Somewhat surprisingly, given what happened to creator Justin Roiland, there is going to be a sequel to comedy first person shooter High On Life. Roiland quit developer Squanch Games in 2023 (apart from anything he was the voice of the main character) but the sequel will carry on regardless, with the pre-rendered reveal trailer featuring a range of new weapons but surprisingly few jokes. It's actually out this winter too, for Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and PC. Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy Leaked a few hours before the show itself, a third entry in the Plague Tale series is now confirmed for sometime next year, on Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and PC. Although the trailer makes it unclear when the game is set exactly, it apparently tells the origin story of Sophia. Although there's obviously a lot of references to the myth of Theseus and the minotaur from Ancient Greece, as well as what looks like a Roman amphitheatre. Strangely, there's no rats at all, nor any obvious sign that part of the game will be set in the modern day, which was hinted at by the ending of the previous entry. Super Meat Boy 3D One of a few genuine surprises during the showcase, there hasn't been a new Super Meat Boy game since the disastrous Super Meat Boy Forever in 2021. Developer Team Meat are back though, with a new game that is 3D in the sense of Super Mario 3D World rather than Super Mario Odyssey. It seems to have captured the look and feel of the originals perfectly, but as the previous title showed getting the right balance between difficult and head-gnawingly frustrating is not easy. It'll be out on Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and PC next year. Ninja Gaiden 4 Microsoft has long seen Ninja Gaiden as one of the few Japanese-made franchises that is inextricably linked to Xbox, despite its many multiformat releases, and they're probably right. Although the game had been revealed earlier in the year the big news here was that it's out – on Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and PC – on October 21 (the same day as Jurassic World Evolution 3, which also featured in the showcase, just in case you wanted further proof of how terrible publishers are at scheduling). Indiana Jones And The Order Of The Giants The only obvious hook for DLC in Indiana Jones And The Great Circle was a sub-villain that didn't get killed. There's no obvious sign that they're involved in this first expansion, so maybe they're being saved for the next. As it is, this is set in Rome (so expect some nods to The Last Crusade) and involves exploring the origins of the giants from the main game, possibly incorporating the secret ending from the original. Although the fact that actor Tony Todd has sadly died since then, may have changed MachineGames' plans. The DLC will be out on September 4 for Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and PC. Beast Of Reincarnation The idea of Pokémon developer Game Freak making multiformat games is not a new thing, although usually they tend to have a similarly family friendly appeal. This looks to be a more serious affair – some manner of action adventure that almost has a Soulslike feel to it. It also features robots, samurai, and a pet wolf so we're immediately interested. But if Game Freak can put out graphics like this for a side project they're going to have even less excuse if the next Pokémon game is the usual broken mess of low-tech visuals. Beast Of Reincarnation is out next year on Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and PC. Clockwork Revolution One of the longest gameplay trailers of the evening was this new action role-player from Wasteland developer inXile Entertainment. Its tone is awkwardly similar to The Outer Worlds but with a neat set of time-altering powers and lots of steampunk style gadgets and world design. It's being co-developed by new studio Shapeshifter Games, who are made up of a lot of Saints Row veterans. It's also one of the few games in the showcase that is not coming to PlayStation 5, likely because the studios are quite small and they started work on the game before Microsoft began their current multiformat policy. Grounded 2 Another genuine surprise was a sequel to Obsidian's pint-sized survival game, which will also be making heavy use of early access to evolve its design. It's the same basic idea as before – of trying to survive as one of a group of tweens shrunk to smaller than ant size – but this time in a local park instead of a back garden, plus now you can use various creepy crawlies as mounts. The original Grounded was one of the first of Microsoft's games to go multiformat (including on Switch), but the sequel will only be on Xbox Series X/S and PC, at least when it launches on Xbox Game Preview on July 29. Cronos: The New Dawn Developer Bloober Team went from zero to hero with the remake of Silent Hill 2, so if they can pull it out the bag a second time, for this new original IP, they will have established themselves as one of the most important horror game developers of the moment. Cronos seems to have something of a Dead Space vibe going on, as well as perhaps influences from Returnal, at least in terms of the story. It's due out this autumn on Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and PC. Aphelion Don't Nod's mountain climbing adventure Jusant is an underappreciated gem, so if this sci-fi adventure ends up being a spiritual successor we will be more than happy. That's certainly what it looks like, although with a less laidback atmosphere and what sounds like some considerably more dangerous monsters. It's coming to Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and PC next year. Aphelion means the point at which a planet or moon is furthest from its star, which we guess explains all the snow. There Are No Ghosts At The Grand One of the best surprises of the showcase was this bizarre new game from a previously unknown studio in Bristol, called Friday Sundae. The set-up is that you've inherited a hotel, as well as a bunch of implausible gadgets that are used to repair and prettify it and the rest of the town. However, they can also be used to bust ghosts at night, as you battle a Lovecraftian invasion. And on top of that it's a musical. It's due out next year, but only for Xbox Series X/S and PC, which implies Microsoft must have put up some of the budget. Planet Of Lana 2: Children Of The Leaf We weren't as impressed by 2023's Limbo inspired platformer Planet Of Lana as some people but there's no doubting it was a very pretty game. There's also no doubt that the sequel looks to be even prettier, especially with its new underwater sequences. Whether the gameplay and storytelling proves to be any more substantial though, remains to be seen. It'll be out on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and PC next year. At Fate's End As attractive as Planet Of Lana 2 might be, this new game from the makers of Spiritfarer looks even better, with some really gorgeous animation. We're not entirely sure what's going on with the playing cards but it's clearly not just a simple action game. If this ends up playing as good as it looks it's going to be amazing; it's out next year on Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and PC. Gears Of War: Reloaded It's already had one remaster but this new version of the first Gears of War will also be released on PlayStation 5 (but not Switch 2 – in fact, there wasn't a single game for Nintendo's new console in the whole showcase). The release date was already announced as August 26, with confirmation of 4K resolution, 120fps support, and modernised multiplayer with cross-play and cross-progression across all formats. Persona 4 Revival It's been rumoured for ages, and it's always been pretty obvious it was real, but Atlus chose the Xbox Games Showcase as the venue to announce their remake of Persona 4. Not much was shown but it seemed a pretty major glow up in terms of graphics, although it's unclear if there'll be any substantial new gameplay or story elements. There's no indication of a release date, but it'll be released on Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and PC. Invincible Vs All of a sudden, superhero themed 2D fighters are all the rage but there seems to be a gulf of difference between this, from unknown developer Quarter Up, and Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls from genre masters Arc System Works. Maybe it'll be good though; it certainly seems bloody enough to be authentic, although there's something a bit off about the visuals that doesn't really match the look of the show. It's out next year on Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and PC. Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade and Final Fantasy 16 It was always inevitable that these two would end up on Xbox Series X/S sooner or later, but while Final Fantasy 16 is out now there's no date for Final Fantasy 7 Remake other than later this year. That practically guarantees that Rebirth, and the third game, will follow eventually. Many fans had hoped that Square Enix would announce the final chapter this month but as the Xbox Game Showcase was the last major preview event it looks like that's not going to happen. Keeper Psychonauts developer Double Fine were rumoured to be about to unveil their next game but, funnily enough, no one guessed that it would involve a sentient, preambulatory lighthouse, whose best friend is a bird. Despite the wonderfully weird visuals and fantastical designs the game is apparently set on a 'post-human' Earth and features no dialogue of any kind. We sense something of an early era Pixar vibe but it won't be long until we know for sure, as it's out on October 17, for Xbox Series X/S and PC – again, a PlayStation 5 version will probably follow later. The Outer Worlds 2 Although the 2019 original didn't seem to set the world on fire the sequel to Obsidian's satirical sci-fi role-player is looking considerably more refined. Although they've made plenty of games in their time, including this year's Avowed, we've never heard Obsidian compare one of their games quite so much to Fallout: New Vegas before. That's clearly intentional and the original certainly did have a Fallout vibe, in terms of its critique of capitalism and the hubris of humanity. It was never quite as funny as Obsidian seemed to think but it appears that aspect may also have improved in the sequel. The guns certainly have, and we really like the look of that BFG style one towards the end. The game's out on Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and PC on October 29… a week before Ninja Gaiden 4, which is just four days after Keeper.

Aquarium mocked for launching woke special exhibition on ‘non-binary' fish as part of Pride Month
The one-day exhibition called Sunset Seas, is to highlight 'diversity in all its forms' 'LOAD OF POLLOCKS' Aquarium mocked for launching woke special exhibition on 'non-binary' fish as part of Pride Month Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A TOURIST attraction has been mocked for launching a special exhibition of 'non-binary' fish. Bristol Aquarium says visitors can see species that 'challenge binary classifications' and 'parallels between marine life and the rich spectrum of LGBTQ+ identities'. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 The exhibition will tell how clownfish can change from male to female Credit: AP The exhibition is to highlight 'diversity in all its forms'. Bosses at the popular tourist hotspot explained that guests would be shown fish which have 'sequential hermaphroditism' – the ability to change biological sex naturally. The phenomenon occurs in fish to help endangered species reproduce naturally underwater. They include the wrasse, which can change from female to male, and the clownfish, which typically change from male to female. But Spectator columnist Lionel Shriver wrote: 'We're presumably to conclude . . . that because some fish change sex and hermaphroditic undersea organisms are commonplace, for humans sex is a phantasmagorical multiple choice and we can change sex, too. 'If some fish can change sex . . . [it's] to their Darwinian advantage.' The Sunset Seas event will be held on June 28 and is part of Bristol's Pride Month celebrations. Chloe O'Dell, events and experiences manager at Bristol Aquarium, said: 'Our oceans are full of incredible stories of transformation and diversity. 'Sunset Seas is our way of celebrating those stories while creating a safe, inclusive, and joyful space for people to connect and be themselves.'
