KATIE’S BATTLE Loose Women’s Katie Piper reveals she considered killing evil ex-boyfriend after acid attack in new prison documentary

Katie admitted if her “childhood had been different” she might have attempted to kill her ex-boyfriend

LOOSE Women star Katie Piper has revealed she considered murdering her ex-boyfriend and attacker after he raped, stabbed and arranged an acid attack on her.

The TV presenter was left with life-threatening injuries after the horrifying string of violent attacks in 2008, which saw David Lynch order a friend to throw sulphuric acid at her face.

Katie has long been open about her fears of Lynch, 48, wanting to harm or even attempt to kill her again on his release, but she’s now admitted she’s also had to work through thoughts of killing Lynch.

Sitting down with a female inmate in her new series Locked Up In Louisiana, who was put behind bars for murdering her husband in what she claims was self-defence against long term domestic violence, Katie admitted: “I was beaten and raped, and then a couple of days later I had acid thrown in my face.

“I had that moment where I felt like he was beating me, he was going to kill me.

“I always thought if someone was going to kill me, I would defend myself, but what happened was I froze out of fear and I didn’t do anything to him and a couple of days later, somebody threw the acid at me.

“I spent a lot of time in hospital, it was very different from prison, but I spent a lot of time isolated and in bed thinking that I should’ve killed him.”

The former model has undergone hundreds of surgeries to repair her face and eyesight following the attack, which took place when she was 24 years old.

This year, she underwent a procedure to give her an “artificial eye”  to protect her damaged left eye.

Katie’s criminal ex, who organised an acid attack on her, could face release in the coming weeks after he was granted a parole hearing next month to discuss moving him to an open prison.

Lynch, 48, was put behind bars for life with a minimum sentence of 16 years in 2009 for instructing Stefan Sylvestre to throw sulphuric acid at Katie days after raping and stabbing her in a hotel room.

Lynch will appear before the parole board on June 3 and 4 to ask to be moved to a facility with greater freedom, which is a step closer to his release, which is currently due in two years.

Katie travels to New Orleans for her new series on U&W, in which the Loose Women panellist sits down with female inmates accused of murder to discuss what pushes people to commit violent crimes.

Among them is Tonica Williams, 45, who was charged with second degree murder for killing her husband, and is facing a mandatory life sentence for a crime she claims was self-defence.

In the series, she reveals the relationship between her and her late ex-husband had long been abusive, having even “sent him to jail” on domestic violence charges before the altercation that killed him.

Reflecting on Tonica’s decision to kill her husband, Katie added: “I’d never experienced trauma or abuse until I was attacked, but that’s not the case for these women behind bars.

“Tonica first saw somebody shot and a dead body at the age of six, and I can’t comprehend what that must have been like and what that does to you.

“Lots of the women in this film were in a situation of kill or be killed, obviously that isn’t a path that I took but maybe if my childhood had been different, who knows?”

Katie Piper: Locked Up In Louisiana airs on U&W from April 27.
