A UK mum who fled from Canada with her two children after a split - and then tried to smuggle them into Jersey in a dinghy – today says she is ready to face an extradition battle.
Lauren Etchells, 36, is now on £10,000 bail and under electronic curfew in Humberside after her case hit headlines around the world.
She is battling a bid to extradite her to Canada and denies child abduction charges following her break-up from former wife Tasha Brown, 47, of Vancouver Island.
Lauren, originally from South Shields, told the Sunday Mirror : "The children are just absolutely fine, happy and healthy. And I am ready to fight this."
