A besotted prison officer filmed entering a cupboard with an inmate is now behind bars herself after admitting she had 'proper fallen in love' with him.

Morgan Farr Varney's illicit relationship was exposed after CCTV footage showed the pair 'loitering' together at Lindholme Prison near Doncaster, South Yorkshire.

After being arrested on suspicion of misconduct in a public office, the 24-year-old admitted she had 'f****** her life up'.

Farr Varney - who later appeared on This Morning talking about her 'online dentistry nightmare' - has now been jailed for ten months.

The case comes as a record number of female prison guards have been fired for affairs with male inmates - with 29 given the sack in the past three years.
