'Cancer' Bride Arrested For Fraud

A bride who claimed to be dying of cervical cancer has been arrested on suspicion of faking the disease.

Danielle Watson, 22, from Billericay, Essex, received donations of thousands of pounds towards her dream wedding from wellwishers.

They then became suspicious when she said she was expecting a baby despite being in the advance stages of the disease.

She has been released on bail after her arrest for fraud by false representation.

Danielle's campaign to gain £6,000 for 'intravenous Vitamin C treatment' was aided by a charity ball plus an auction supported by celebrity chef Gordon Ramsey.

An Essex Police spokesman said: "A woman was arrested on July 27 in connection with police inquiries into a charity collection.

"The 22-year-old woman was arrested at her home in Billericay at 9.30am.

"She was arrested on suspicion of fraud by false representation.

"The woman was later bailed until August 6 pending further inquiries."
