The ex-partner of a man who left her for a Ukrainian refugee has said she is not surprised that the pair have split.
Lorna Garnett reportedly told pals that she wouldn't be taking her former boyfriend of 10 years, Tony, back after he left their family for 22-year-old Sofia Karkadym.
Ms Garnett previously claimed that Ms Karkadym wore "low cut tops and red lipstick" around the house in an attempt to seduce her man after moving into their home from war-torn Ukraine .

Her 30-year-old ex-boyfriend, who is the dad of her two kids, eventually packed up his things and left Ms Garnett before moving into a new home with Ms Karkadym.
But the whirlwind romance ended after Mr Garnett allegedly dumped his refugee partner after a row at his 30th birthday celebration.
According to The Sun, Ms Garnett told her pals: "I knew it would end in disaster for them — I just didn't think it would come after only four months.
"He has thrown away so much. It's hard to feel any sympathy.
"I wouldn't have him back in a million years."
Speaking about his recent breakup, Mr Garnett told MailOnline: "I am 100 per cent through with her. We are finished as a couple.
"I left Lorna and my two children for her, and I made every extra effort I could to help her keep us together.
"I worked so hard to make this relationship work. I knew that we would look like tw**s if we broke up because we have a media profile and all the attention that has been put on us on television and on the internet."
He described his relationship with Ms Karkadym as a "mistake" but said he was still looking out for her.
He added that he has even been messaging her mum since their breakup.
Mr Garnett said he would contact the council and Home Office to try and find the Ukrainian a new home.
He has always insisted his relationship with his former partner Ms Garnett was "already over" when he met Ms Karkadym.
But Ms Garnett previously told The Sun: "She set her sights on Anthony from the start, decided she wanted him, and she took him.
"I just don't understand how he could throw all that away for a woman he's known for a fortnight. The life I knew is shattered."
