I dated Levi’s Bellfield new fiancée… she was ALWAYS fascinated by his sick crimes – she wants to support him
AN ex-boyfriend of Levi Bellfield’s fiancée has claimed she was always fascinated by his sick crimes.
The unnamed former partner said the besotted blonde spoke about the serial killer “a lot” during their relationship – but he is still “shocked” by their engagement.
Monster Bellfield, who is serving a whole-life term for at least three murders, got down on one knee in front of stunned prison staff last week.
The 53-year-old has consulted a solicitor to help him tie the knot at HMP Frankland in Co Durham – though the ceremony could still be blocked by disgusted ministers.
Speaking ahead of the potential nuptials, one of the woman’s ex-boyfriends has shared his disgust at the idea.
The man told MailOnline: “I have to say I am shocked by her behaviour.

“She was always clever and had a huge knowledge of a lot of things including the law.
“She very much spoke of him and the crimes he committed a lot.
“But it was just that she hoped he was getting help and support.”
The woman, in her 40s, has been dating Milly Dowler’s murderer since 2019.

She is said to be adamant he is “not a monster” and has “changed” during his time behind bars.
And the bride-to-be has also boasted that they have shared “kisses and cuddles” during her visits to see him in prison.
Despite hammer killer Bellfield being locked up for a whole-life term for at least three murders, his beau says she is “not ashamed” of their relationship as his “bad past” is behind him.
The woman told the Mirror: “He is not a monster. Yes, he has a bad past, but 17 years in prison changes a person.
“He has changed, he has remorse, and there are always reasons a person goes wrong in life. There is always a far bigger picture.
“He is 53 years old, still young and has to live knowing he will just grow old and die in that horrendous place.”
She struck up a twisted relationship with Bellfield when the fiend wrote to her several years ago and she is now a regular visitor.
The pair see each other once or twice a week for two hours at a time, with the killer writing her love letters and poems.
He is not a monster. Yes, he has a bad past, but 17 years in prison changes a person.
Bellfield's fiancèe
They sit opposite each other at a table and mingle with other cons and their friends and families in a hall at the prison.
The Sun exclusively revealed that the duo were introduced by the Yorkshire Ripper in a sickening setup.
Peter Sutcliffe was friends with the woman when Bellfield — who was on the same wing and helped tidy his pal’s cell — asked if he could be put in touch after seeing her pic.
The lovestruck monster has now plastered his cell walls with pictures of the blonde – including one of her in lingerie and the words: “Come to bed Levi.”
Bellfield has now consulted a solicitor to help him with his plan to marry her behind bars.
Prisoners have the right to marry in jail under the 1983 Marriages Act and the Human Rights Act.
After he proposed out of the blue, the woman has also bought Bellfield an engagement ring – that he is not allowed to wear until given permission to marry.
But despite the criticism, his fiancée has told critics she isn’t a “random silly woman with an obsession for serial killers”.
‘SLAP IN THE FACE’ TO VICTIMS
She said: “I’m a very educated, intelligent woman, nobody’s fool. I don’t know Levi from 2002, I know the Levi of now. Well, since 2019.
“I’m extremely non-judgemental, and although I have great empathy with the victims, I have empathy with Levi too.”
The bride-to-be gushed about their “extremely close relationship” but moaned his stretch in the slammer is just a “death sentence in disguise”.
Bellfield’s blonde lover has also hit out at claims Britain’s most dangerous man “groped” her during a prison visit.
She said: “He is my partner. We had a kiss and cuddle as always, he put his hand on my tummy, that was it.”
She also claimed that he has demanded a DNA test to prove he did not father a child just weeks before murdering Milly Dowler.
A mum-of-three claims she met the vile killer in a nightclub before he drove her home in the same car used to abduct the 13-year-old.
The two had a one-night stand and she fell pregnant – but her son, now 19, still does not know the truth about his parentage.
‘DISGRACEFUL’
Elsewhere, Bellfield’s tormented ex-girlfriend has branded his wedding plans “disgraceful” and a “slap in the face” to victims.
Joe Collings, who was routinely raped, beaten and psychologically abused during her three-year relationship with the former bouncer, told The Sun how the stomach-churning news left her in “floods of tears”.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson said he was “sickened and appalled” by the revelation, while prisons minister Victoria Atkins has vowed to do “everything in her power” to stop it.
Bellfield was convicted in 2008 of killing Marsha McDonnell, 19, and Amelie Delagrange, 22, plus the attempted murder of Kate Sheedy, 18, who he deliberately ran over.
He followed his murder victims in areas he knew well in South West London and launched vicious hammer attacks.
When police arrested Bellfield — who has at least seven children with at least three women — they found he had violently abused three ex-partners.
Nine serious offences of assault and sexual assault on them were left on file.
In 2011, Bellfield was also convicted of the 2002 murder of Surrey schoolgirl Milly, who he abducted in Walton on Thames.

The Sun told in February how Bellfield — suspected of scores of other attacks — had also sensationally confessed to the 1996 hammer murders of Lin Russell, 45, and her daughter Megan, six, in Kent.
Michael Stone, 61, had been convicted of the killings in 1998.
