Alexandra Gregory told her ex-partner she had given birth to a very ill daughter, the court hears.

By Maisie Olah and Alice CullinaneA children's cancer nurse who faked having her ex-partner's baby during lockdown has been given a suspended prison sentence.

The court heard the pair had had a short relationship between February and July 2020, which ended amicably. West Mercia Police said Gregory had since gone on to have a baby with another partner and had refused to answer questions during interviews.Prosecution barrister Tom Wickstead told the court that the experience had left Mr Smith feeling "like a shadow of himself" while the judge later acknowledged he had suffered "continuous anxiety".

He added that the defendant "fully accepted" that she had lied about having Mr Smith's baby and that there was "no sensible explanation for what she did".
