The cleaning manager said: “From all these eight years I’ve been with Christine, I wouldn’t know how much money I would have sent her.“But all I know is it’s in the hundreds of thousands.

It’s worth every penny.“After I’ve sent Christine the money, there’s enough for me to pay my bills at least, and then when I look again, I’ve got about £50-£60 for myself, and that’s more than enough to see me through the month.”Despite their romance Christine remains married to her former partner, and she can't cough up the cash for a divorce, so Shaun is also trying to save thousands of pounds to enable the couple to legally separate.He continued: “I don’t have the money, but I am going to be saving up for it and then we can get married.“Yes, they’re still married, but they don’t live with each other.

I don’t feel jealous about it, because I know she loves me, and I love her.”Even though the pair appear loved up, Shaun's family admitted they have concerns about him sending money, but he says he doesn't care about what.
