Deborah Addams, 56, from Whitstable in Kent, giving the thumbs-up outside court after she was spared jail
A wife, who threw dog mess at her cheating husband and sent naked pictures of him to his employee, has been spared jail.
Deborah Addams, 56, from Whitstable in Kent, began her harassment of her former partner of 11 years, Geoffrey Mylcriston, 65, when she discovered credit card statements from the Holiday Inn and Travelodge dating back ‘a-year-and-a-half’.
She pointed out he had allegedly been sleeping with 200 prostitutes for five years during their relationship, after claiming to have found a ‘secret folder’ on his laptop.
Folkestone Magistrates’ Court heard that she had sent 1,500 texts in two months alone, as well as many emails with one questioning why a prostitute had used one of her sex toys.
Among the messages sent by Addams included one stating ‘Good morning p***k’, with another reading: ‘I am very, very, very angry. You need to release me so you can be the town pervert.’
Other messages to her ex, included one asking him why he had ‘allowed a prostitute to use one of her sex toys’.
When asked in court about her abusive messages, she said: ‘If I wanted to hurt him I would cut off his balls and wear them as earrings.’
She claimed that she sent the messages after finding ‘evidence’ that her ex had booked rooms at hotels, claiming he had been sleeping with prostitutes during their marriage.
The court heard how Addams was previously convicted of harassment and given a restraining order in July 2016, but that abusive messages continued to be sent.
During the case last year, Canterbury JPs heard how her Mr Mylcrist had admitted an affair with a woman called Natasha, leading the Addams to scrawl lipstick all over his Mercedes car.
Addams’ ex-husband said at the court case last year that his ex-wife was a ‘wild card’, saying he ‘never knew what she would do next’.
The harassment came to a head in January this year when Addams threw dog poo and gravel at her ex-husband in Whitstable, Kent.

She also send an email to one of her ex-husband’s employees saying he was a ‘pervert’ as well as a naked snap of him she had found on his laptop.
When Judge Jay Barron stated that he hoped she had moved on and was now seeing a new partner, she replied: ‘I would like to think that I moved on whether I had a new partner or not. I moved on by myself.’
Judge Barron asked if she would commit no more acts of harassment and when she answered affirmatively, he responded: ‘I will take you at your word but if you do, you will probably come before me again and then I shall not.’

In a previous statement to the court, her husband said: ‘What Deborah has done has not only affected me but my new partner.
‘When I am at home, I feel anxious about Deborah showing up at my address.
‘I shut the blinds when I am at home to make sure she is not staring through the windows.
‘She has caused great embarrassment to me. I am not scared of Deborah but just anxious and worried.
‘I want the ongoing issues with Deborah to stop so I can carry on with my life.’

Addams was ordered to do 150 hours of unpaid work and given an extended restraining order at Folkestone Magistrates’ Court yesterday.
She had previously been found guilty of disclosing private sexual images with the intention of causing distress, assault and harassment.
She was also found to have breached a previous restraining order against her ex-husband, dating from July 25, 2016.
Judge Barron gave Addams a community order for 12 months in which she would have to do 150 hours of unpaid work.
She was ordered to pay £850 costs as well as a £35 surcharge but was not ordered to pay any compensation to her husband as they are currently in the process of separating linked funds.
A new restraining order was placed on her, ordering that she was not to attempt to contact her former husband or his new partner in any way, except through a solicitor, for the next two years.
