DANI Dyer has been left devastated by the jailing of her boyfriend Sammy Kimmence, who sources say lied to her about the gravity of his crimes.
While they are still together she could yet decide to dump him, with a source explaining: "They have spoken and it didn't go well."
Kimmence, 25, was jailed for three years yesterday after pleading guilty to conning two OAPs out of £34,000.
Dani, 24, left the country to be away from the UK when sentencing went ahead and contrary to other reports has not yet dumped Kimmence and is standing by him for now.
Insiders said she was overcome with sadness for his victims and was attempting to come to terms with the lies she had been told.
A source said: “Sammy had downplayed the court case every step of the way and led Dani to believe he hadn’t done anything too serious.
“And that he would get a suspended sentence.
“Now she knows the full horror of what he did she is broken, she feels desperately sorry for the two men he scammed and whose lives he ruined.”
Dani had stuck by Kimmence throughout his trial and is now mum to his baby son, Santi, who was born in January.
She feels utterly stupid for ever believing Sammy and she is totally overwhelmed.
She has kept silent since he changed his plea to guilty in April and the pair were able to spend Father’s Day together last month.
However a source said Dani has been left feeling betrayed and is unsure of what the future holds.
A source said: “Dani has been absolutely floored by this, she knows she has to make some massive changes in her life but is so distraught she needs time to think things through.
“She feels utterly stupid for ever believing Sammy and she is totally overwhelmed.
“The little dream family she thought she had has been smashed apart and she is now trying to work out how best to pick up the pieces.
“All she knows is that her baby boy Santi is the only thing that matters now. And she is working out how best to look after him as a single parent.”
Kimmence sobbed and called himself "an awful human being" as a judged sentenced him yesterday.
Now Dani knows the full horror of what he did she is broken
It came after he posed as a financial investor to defraud two vulnerable victims, 80 and 90, out of their hard-earned cash.
Sleazy Sammy, a stockbroker and amateur football player, persuaded Peter Marin and Peter Haynes to allow him to invest their money for them.
His victims were clients at legitimate investment company Equine Global Sports Limited, where Kimmence worked as a senior trader.
The company received money from customers which it would use to place bets on horse races, on their behalf.
But Portsmouth Crown Court heard Kimmence took the clients on when the business went into liquidation, falsely claiming he was authorised to provide financial services.
One victim was left "living on the breadline" after the dodgy dealer splashed the cash in nightclubs and on a personalised number plate for his Mercedes.
Prosecutor Mike Mason said: "This was a very unpleasant fraud against two men who Mr Kimmence deliberately targeted.
"He targeted them because they were old, they were vulnerable and somewhat isolated.
"This wasn't something he migrated into from a friendship. This was something he planned."
