Chanelle reveals mother's killer fears

Big Brother star Chanelle Hayes has claimed that she is scared her mother's killer will come after her if he is released next year.

Keith Pollard strangled Hayes's mother, Andrea Sinclair, and was jailed for life in 1988. He is due before a parole board in April.

Speaking about the possibility of his release, Hayes told the Daily Star: "I have nightmares about it all the time. There is no doubt in my mind that if he was released he’d come after me and my family.

"There has been a lot of speculation about him being released this year and if that was the case then I’d have to get security for myself and my family.

"I wouldn’t care how much it costs - I’d have to pay for it. I wouldn’t be able to sleep at night otherwise. The thought of him being out there really scares me. I just know that he’d come after me."
