'Homewrecking' Ukrainian refugee who ran off with Brit dad insists 'I didn't steal him'

A Ukrainian refugee accused of being a homewrecker after running away with a taken man has spoken out. Sofiia Karkadym, 22, was offered shelter in the UK after fleeing the conflict in Ukraine by Lorna Garnett and her long-term partner Tony in May 2022.

She stayed with the couple and their two children for just ten days in Yorkshire before she decided to leave, and Tony decided that he would go with her.

Lorna said that she felt Sofiia had no interest in talking to her and only had eyes for her partner - who she had been in a relationship with since 2014.
