Fiona Templeton, 25, wed Sean Mullender, 23, in 2014, just 10 days after the death of their nine-week-old son Daniel.
It was a spur-of-the-moment wedding, fuelled – or so Fiona thought at the time – by their grief at the loss of their baby son, who had stopped breathing in their North Wales home one night in October.
After two days on life support, baby Daniel passed away, leaving Fiona devastated. After the little boy’s funeral – Sean was a pall bearer – they decided to tie the knot.
But days after their wedding Sean was arrested, with police accusing him of shaking Daniel so hard the baby suffered nine fractured ribs and “traumatic” head injuries, which caused a massive bleed on his brain.
Last week, Sean was sentenced to eight years in prison for killing Daniel. Fiona is now in the process of divorcing Sean and wants his jail term increased.
“The sentence is never going to be enough,” Fiona told The Sun.
“In four years he’ll be free to live his life and move on, while I’ll be thinking every day about the life my son could have had. He took that life away.”
