A woman who discovered she was married to a convicted paedophile just a week after their wedding is still trying to divorce him five years later.
Jazmin Cullen, 24, from Carshalton, Surrey, was enjoying her honeymoon in Brighton with new husband Jason Cullen when her grandmother found sick child abuse photographs on a laptop, which Cullen had been using.
She then found out that Cullen, 31, a former ambulance call operator, had also lied to her about his identity and criminal past.
Jazmin Cullen, 24, from Carshalton, Surrey, discovered her new husband Jason was a paedophile a week after their wedding while they were enjoying their honeymoon at her grandmother's Brighton home. The couple on their wedding day
Two years earlier he had been jailed for possessing 8,000 child abuse images, including some graded the worst possible, and exchanging them with fellow paedophiles.
He had served half of a two-year prison sentence and met Jazmin shortly after being released.
But she knew nothing of his sickening secret until her grandmother found the disgusting child images on her laptop and realised Cullen had downloaded them.
The pair reported Cullen - whose real name is Jason Hodson - and he was hauled back to court and given a community order.
But Jazmin has found herself unable to divorce Cullen because he is refusing to cooperate with legal proceedings, dragging out the official end to their marriage.
Recalling the start of their relationship Jazmin said: 'He seemed like such a normal and charming man and still to this day I find it very hard to believe it is the same person.
'I wanted to believe it was all a mistake. At no point did I ever support his actions, but I wanted to believe that it was not true.'
Jazmin met Cullen in 2010 when he was working in a Croydon pub and was taken by his 'charming' personality.
