Former Dragons\u2019 Den star Sarah Newman has returned to Ireland following the breakdown of her marriage just 12 months after she said \u2018I do.\u2019<\/p>\n

The well-known businesswoman married Henry Digby, the Baron of Offaly last November at St Andrew\u2019s Church, close to Mr Digby\u2019s estate in Dorset, where the couple had lived.<\/p>\n

The wedding reception<\/a> was held at their home, Minterne House, which has been the home of the Churchill and Digby families since 1620.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, it isn\u2019t a happily ever after for the couple, who have now separated, according to the Sunday Independent<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Friends of Newman told the publication that she had been left \u2018blind-sided\u2019 following the collapse of her marriage, which has \u2018rocked her.\u2019<\/p>\n

Ms Newman has returned to Ireland, and is currently staying in Dublin where she is working on figuring things out.<\/p>\n

One person noted that she had a lot of friends and a \u2018good support system\u2019 but was left confused following the split. <\/p>\n

\u2018She really loved Henry and thought they were going to be together for ever, but life happens and it takes turns you don\u2019t expect. This is not something Sarah wanted.\u2019<\/p>\n

Ms Newman was previously engaged to former Kilkenny hurling star DJ Carey, but the engagement was called off in 2012.<\/p>\n

The entrepreneur had been left horrified when she learned that her then-fianc\u00e9 lied to friends about an \u2018incurable brain cancer\u2019 diagnosis, and reported Carey to the garda\u00ed at the time.<\/p>\n

The Kilkenny man was earlier this year sentenced to five and a half years in prison for defrauding<\/a> nearly \u20ac400,000 from over 20 people while pretending he had cancer.<\/p>\n

Dublin Circuit Criminal Court heard that the former GAA All-Star defrauded in total \u20ac394,127 and $13,000 US dollars from the injured parties over a period between 2014 and 2022. \u20ac44,200 has been repaid, leaving \u20ac349,927 and $13,000 US dollars outstanding.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Former Dragons\u2019 Den star Sarah Newman has returned to Ireland following the breakdown of her marriage just 12…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":181063,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[321,93,61,60],"class_list":["post-181062","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-celebrities","tag-entertainment","tag-ie","tag-ireland"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/181062","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=181062"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/181062\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/181063"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=181062"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=181062"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=181062"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
