A PAINTING of Prince Harry has sold for more than £2,000 - and you won't believe who the artist is. The artwork, which was created by a talented painting PIG called Pigcasso in just a few minutes, was snapped up for £2,350 by a Spanish buyer. The masterpiece is only one of the hundreds painted by the four-year-old porcine prodigy - who was saved from the slaughterhouse as a baby by owner, Joanne Lefson. The pair now live at Farm Sanctuary SA in the Franschhoek Valley of South Africa. Ms Lefson ensures all money made from Pigcasso's paintings - almost £50,000 to date - cares for the farm animals who reside there. She said: "That painting was totally Prince Harry and was brought for a good price from a Spanish collector who is a big Pigcasso fan. "Pigcasso isn’t that different to other pigs, she is smart, curious and intelligent. "The only significant difference is she has a ton of talent when she paints."

A WOMAN was scammed out of £25,000 after just three 10-minute dates with a man she met on a dating app. Angela Whitbread, 45, was conned out of her hard-earned cash after she met guardsman Nathan Walker. The brazen soldier asked her to be a guarantor on several loans he was taking out after the pair had met briefly three times. Speaking to Dermot O'Leary and Alison Hammond, she said that pals had encouraged her to meet new people after she had been separated from her partner of seven years. She matched with Walker, and the pair instantly hit it off. "We swapped numbers and were chatting away. It was quite flattering coming out of a relationship," she said. But then Walker asked Angela for help: "He said to me that his phone contract would be cut off and he wouldn't be able to speak to me or his daughter. So he was making me feel kind of sorry for him." Kindhearted Angela said as it was only a £50 loan, it didn't seem like a red flag to her. "I've always been … [Read more...] about ‘I was scammed out of £25,000 after just three 10-minute dates with a man I met on an app’
