Murderer Tracie Andrews marries new lover she met in a pub

Murderer Tracie Andrews has got married this afternoon – 21 years after she knifed her first fiance to death, MailOnline can reveal today.

The bride, now 48, stabbed Lee Harvey, 25, more than 40 times in 1996 and hours later blamed a road rage attack by ‘a fat man with staring eyes’ who never existed.

The murderer, who was later jailed for 14 years and released in 2012, has walked down the aisle with divorcee Phil Goldsworthy, 56, at a hotel in Redruth, Cornwall, today.

Andrews changed her name to Jenna Stephens and dyed her blonde hair black after leaving jail and met her bouncer husband when she started behind the bar in the pub where he worked.

Mr Goldsworth knows all about her past and is ‘smitten’ with the former hairdresser, who had a history of violence towards her boyfriends before she murdered Mr Harvey in a country lane outside Birmingham in 1996.

Vicious attack: Barmaid Tracie Andrews, 46,  became one of Britain's most notorious female killers after she stabbed her fiance Lee Harvey, 25, to death on the side of a quiet country road in Alvechurch, Worcestershire, in December 1996. She claimed he was killed by a motorist

The couple chose the four-star Penventon Park Hotel in Redruth, which is desribed as a Georgian mansion offering ‘an unashamedly lavish wedding in sumptuous surrounds’.

For £3,000-plus couples get married can enjoy an sumptuous three course wedding breakfast for up to 250 guests, canapes, Pimms or sparkling wine and the honeymoon suite on the night including breakfast. 

Ahead of today’s wedding the notorious ‘road-rage’ killer donned a racy policewoman outfit for her Butlins hen do. 

She was spotted in June as a policewoman wearing a short skirt, suspenders and a lapel badge reading ‘WPC Pleasure’.

Andrews and a friend, also dressed as a policewoman, hoisted up their skirts and stroked each other whenever men wolf-whistled at them, it was reported. 

She was also said to have ‘jiggled’ her breasts and kissed strangers while celebrating with six friends at the Butlin’s holiday resort in Minehead, Somerset.

After Saturday’s celebration, the convicted killer, who lives under a new identity, stepped out for the second night of the 1980s-themed weekend wearing a daring leather and lace catwoman outfit. 

Andrews, who now goes by the name Jenna Stephens, was said to have staggered home in the early hours before nursing a hangover.

A reveller at the Butlin’s event said: ‘She knows no shame – she thought it was hilarious to dress as a copper.

‘She didn’t spare a thought for Lee’s family. The lads swooning over her would be shocked to learn her true identity.’ 

Her antics were a bitter blow for Lee Harvey’s daughter Danielle, who used to live with Andrews before she murdered her father in a country lane in Alvechurch, Worcestershire, in 1996 after an argument. 

Danielle says she can’t believe Andrews was celebrating her hen party on Father’s Day.

The 25-year-old told MailOnline: ‘I saw that she was back in the paper and I’m absolutely disgusted. And that it was published on Father’s Day is awful timing. 

‘It’s made me feel sick to my stomach to be honest.’

Danielle, a mother-of-five, from Birmingham, has been slowly rebuilding her life since losing her dad 21 years ago.

The family refuses to speak about Andrews as they think she revels in it and don’t want to give her wedding to new love, bouncer Phil Goldsworthy, anymore publicity.

Furious argument: Andrews stabbed bus driver Mr Harvey more than 42 times with a pen knife in 1996

Furious argument: Andrews stabbed bus driver Mr Harvey more than 42 times with a pen knife in 1996

Andrews gained notoriety as one of Britain’s most infamous female killers after she stabbed bus driver Mr Harvey dozens of times and slashed his throat, leaving him to bleed to death in a country lane. 

She then concocted a story that he had been killed by ‘a fat man with staring eyes’ in a road rage attack.

Andrews even appeared on television clutching the hand of Mr Harvey’s mother Maureen as she made an emotional appeal for help to catch the killer.

But she was eventually charged with murder, and her trial was told there was compelling forensic evidence which showed she had killed her fiance with a Swiss Army-type pen knife following an argument.

Neighbours at the couple’s home in Alvechurch, Worcestershire, said they frequently heard shouting, and the jury was told Andrews had also violently attacked former boyfriends.

She was jailed for life, with a recommendation that she serve a minimum of 14 years before she would be considered for parole.  

Almost two years later she confessed to killing Mr Harvey, but insisted she was acting in self-defence.

After her release from Askham Grange Prison near York, Andrews moved to a southern coastal town – which cannot be named for legal reasons.

Tracie Andrews delivered an ‘Oscar-winning performance’ in deception at a police press conference just hours after murdering fiance Lee Harvey in a frenzied attack, a new documentary claims.

Andrews, 46, a former part-time model, became one of Britain’s most notorious female killers after she stabbed her partner Lee Harvey, 25, 42 times on the side of a road in Alvechurch, Worcestershire, in December 1996.

Just 36 hours after the killing, Andrews, then 27, appeared alongside Mr Harvey’s parents – holding his mother’s hand – at an emotional press conference and described how she had tried to help her fiance after he had been murdered by a ‘large man with staring eyes’ after a high-speed car chase on a quiet country road.

Body language expert Cliff Lansley, who used to train staff at the US Department of Homeland Security, reveals on tonight’s episode of Investigation Discovery show Faking It: Tears Of A Crime how Andrews gave away six separate signs of deception during the conference as she said the following eight words: ‘I just tried to stop the bleeding, really.’

‘Victim’: Tracie Andrews claimed she was injured by the man who killed her fiance Lee Harvey in December 1996

Lee Harvey, an easy-going and fun-loving bus driver, met Tracie Andrews in a nightclub in 1994. 

She was a glamorous single mother (her daughter was then aged four) who ran a market stall selling perfume and had big dreams of becoming a model. 

Jealous and possessive, Andrews would fly into a rage if she wasn’t always at the epicentre of Lee’s world, and during their volatile two-year relationship they split up many times.

However police were only made aware of the couple’s fiery past once they began their investigation into Mr Harvey’s murder. 

Mr Harvey was stabbed more than 37 times in what Andrews claimed was a road rage attack. 

She concocted a story that he had been murdered by a wild-eyed maniac and made public appeals to trace the culprit.
