Ian Bailey has claimed the three children of his ex-partner Jules Thomas were "jealous" of his relationship - and he says he feels "eternal shame" for violently abusing the Cork-based artist.
Mr Bailey has launched his new long-awaited podcast, Ian Bailey: In His Own Words.
The Englishman details his life before and after he became the chief suspect in the murder of the French filmmaker Sophie Toscan Du Plantier, who was found bludgeoned to death from a rock just 100 yards from the front door of her west Cork holiday home in Schull just before Christmas in 1996.
