The killer fiancé who murdered a Northumberland-born author in a greed-motivated plot has been found guilty of killing his first wife.
Ian Stewart, 61, was convicted on Wednesday of the murder of Diane Stewart in 2010, six years before he drugged and smothered children’s book author Helen Bailey.
Stewart was jailed for life in 2017 after a jury convicted him of killing his 51-year-old fiancée, who wrote the Electra Brown series of books.
