Denise Welch has recalled the moment she discovered a fire had been started outside her home as she spoke on Loose Women about her 'horrendous' stalker ordeal. It is the first time the TV star has spoken on the programme about horror she and her family faced.
Earlier this month Toraq Wyngard, 64, was sentenced to seven years and seven months in prison at Chester Crown Court. The former Coronation Street actress gave evidence over video-link from the US, where she was at the time, as he was sentenced on April 7. She said: “It has changed my life. I have a wonderful life and this man has permanently scarred it."
The court heard how at just before 11pm on September 19 2020. Wyngard, from Salford, started a fire in the driveway of Denise's Cheshire home she shares with her husband, Lincoln Townley. Speaking about the ordeal on Thursday's edition (April 21) of Loose Women, Denise said: "It's been a pretty horrendous time for everybody," before recalling what happened the night of the fire.
