Woman 'infatuated' with MP said she was having his baby and wanted to 'run away with him'

A woman 'infatuated' with an MP made false claims about being pregnant with his child and ran up a massive hotel bill in his name before expecting him to run away with her.

Sir Jake Berry, MP for Rossendale & Darwen, shared his harrowing experience of having a stalker with broadcaster Gloria De Piero. The politician described how the woman turned up at his door with a suitcase hoping to run away with him.

She told staff at a Lancashire hotel she worked for him and racked up a "huge hotel bill", also claiming she was having his baby. Sir Jake said the woman, who travelled from the North East of England, appeared to have a “fixation” with him.
