'Baby machine' mum dumped by husband as she expects 12th child


Baby machine Cheryl Prudham has vowed never to take back her ­serial cheat husband, saying he cruelly walked out as she expects her 12th child.

The 32-year-old would rather struggle as a single mum on welfare than endure more heartbreak with Robert, who has ­fathered six of her brood.

She claims he has been leaving her for other women, then crawling back, throughout their five years together.

Cheryl, whose ever-expanding family costs taxpayers £30,000 a year to keep, said: “He’s been unfaithful more than ten times. Things went wrong quite early on. Two weeks before we got ­married he was cheating.

“At that time I was eight months pregnant with our first son, Leon, and I felt I had no choice but to get on with it. It was a mistake but I was naive and just hoped it was a one-off.

“I was desperate to have a stable family life and give the kids a home with a mum and a dad – something I’d never had but always craved.”

Cheryl sparked outrage this month when she revealed she was pregnant again, ­conceiving just five weeks after she gave birth to twins last October.

Cuddling her three-year-old son Lenny, her eyes filled with tears as she recalled the first time Robert was ­unfaithful. She already had six children by two different men when she met him in the summer of 2009.

Two months after their first date she was pregnant and he moved from Manchester to live with her in Tunbridge Wells, Kent.

Cheryl told the Sunday People : “I’m estranged from my family and didn’t really have any friends. Then Robert came along.

“He seemed unfazed. I had six kids and my world soon revolved around him.

“We were over the moon when I became pregnant.

“I had terribly low self-esteem and I suppose I was grateful that he was ­willing to take us on. Before I knew it we were getting married.

“But a few weeks before we ­exchanged vows, Robert walked out on me, claiming he needed space.”

“He started referring to a girlfriend in his Facebook status updates.
