Going it alone: Cheryl Prudham is pregnant with child number 12 but WON'T take her cheating husband back
Baby machine Cheryl Prudham has vowed never to take back her serial cheat husband, saying he cruelly walked out as she expects her 12th child.
The 32-year-old would rather struggle as a single mum on welfare than endure more heartbreak with Robert, who has fathered six of her brood.
She claims he has been leaving her for other women, then crawling back, throughout their five years together.

Cheryl, whose ever-expanding family costs
“At that time I was eight months pregnant with our first son, Leon, and I felt I had no choice but to get on with it. It was a mistake but I was naive and just hoped it was a one-off.
“I was desperate to have a stable family life and give the kids a home with a mum and a dad – something I’d never had but always craved.”
Cheryl sparked outrage this month when she revealed she was pregnant again, conceiving just five weeks after she gave birth to twins last October.
Cuddling her three-year-old son Lenny, her eyes filled with tears as she recalled the first time Robert was unfaithful. She already had six children by two different men when she met him in the summer of 2009.
Two months after their first date she was pregnant and he moved from Manchester to live with her in Tunbridge Wells, Kent.
Cheryl told the Sunday People : “I’m estranged from my family and didn’t really have any friends. Then Robert came along.
“He seemed unfazed. I had six kids and my world soon revolved around him.
“We were over the moon when I became pregnant.
“I had terribly low self-esteem and I suppose I was grateful that he was willing to take us on. Before I knew it we were getting married.
“But a few weeks before we exchanged vows, Robert walked out on me, claiming he needed space.”
“He started referring to a girlfriend in his Facebook status updates.

“He started referring to a girlfriend in his Facebook status updates.
I felt like I was having a nervous breakdown. It completely destroyed me. I was in bits. It was the worst I’d ever felt in my life.”
That was in March, 2010. In April he was back and the couple married that May, the same month Leon, now four was born. Cheryl said: “When he came back, begging forgiveness, I took him back immediately.
“He was full of remorse and swore he’d made a mistake and would never cheat on me again. Stupidly I believed him.”
But her happiness was short-lived. Six months after their wedding, Robert left, again saying he needed space.
She said: “He change his Facebook status to ‘In a relationship with’ and there was a girl I’d never heard of.
“I think she was an old school friend from Manchester. Rob went for three weeks before he came crawling back, again begging forgiveness.
“I was heartbroken but I took him back. I wanted our relationship to work for the sake of our son. I soon became pregnant again.”

She recalled: “I was seven months’ pregnant with Lenny and I had no idea how I was going to cope. I hit rock bottom.” Robert was back in time for Lenny’s birth in May.
But Cheryl claimed: “From then it followed the same pattern. Every six months he’d become distant.
“I’d confront him, he’d say he didn’t want me, then walk out and start seeing someone else.
“I’d spend night after night wondering whose bed he was in. I felt so worthless that by the time he begged to come back, I actually felt grateful.
“He couldn’t control himself – he even chatted up a neighbour’s daughter. Two years ago a furious woman told me Robert was sleeping with her 17-year-old girl.
“I was so ashamed. But I took him back. It makes me feel a complete mug but I was desperate.
“I was relying on friends to look after the kids so I could hold down my job as a carer. It was tough.”
She said: “A few weeks before the twins were born last year he walked out again. I challenged him but he laughed in my face. He never denies sleeping with women . He just says it’s none of my business.
“I ended up having the twins by emergency caesarean operation, with him hundreds of miles away. I called him from the ambulance to say the twins were coming and I was scared. He said, ‘What do you want me to do about it?’”
Yet again Cheryl took Robert, 29, back. She said: “We agreed, no more children. Last October he had a vasectomy, But days later I found I was pregnant again. It must have happened a week before he had the snip.
“It was unlucky because, despite all the children, we rarely have sex. After five loads of washing a day and all the other things with a huge family, I can’t be bothered.
“I was shocked about the pregnancy at first and planned an abortion. I had the appointment but couldn’t go through with it.” Cheryl soon saw tell-tale changes in Robert’s behaviour and last week she confronted him. She said: “I knew he was up to no good again. I could spot the signs. He walked out, smirking, and hasn’t been back since.
“But I know what he’s been up to. I found a load of incriminating messages on his Facebook account. He was talking to some girl, arranging getting together, slagging me off. He agreed to have unprotected sex and talked about them having a baby, even though they’d never met.
Cheryl claims a distressed childhood led her to have multiple children.
