Former model supports Charles Bronson at parole hearing despite end of prison romance

A former model who struck up a relationship with notorious prisoner Charles Bronson supported him this week when he made his bid for parole after 48 years behind bars.

Gemma Fernandez was at the Royal Courts of Justice for both days of the public parole hearing, the Mirror reported. She has remained a loyal supporter of the 70-year-old once labelled Britain's most violent prisoner despite him having announced their "split".

Bronson, who now uses the name Charles Salvador and has twice married and divorced while in prison, fell for Gemma - who is in her 30s and has posed for FHM magazine - after starting a relationship through letters and video calls. They had their first face-to-face meeting after prison Covid restrictions eased, and Gemma set up the Free Charles Salvador petition.
