23-year-old British OnlyFans model Abigail White was found guilty on Friday, Oct. 21, of fatally stabbing her ex-boyfriend, Bradley Lewis, in the heart. The incident took place just hours after he broke up with her, said reports.
The model plunged the knife into the 22-year-old victim's chest in their South Gloucestershire home the night of March 25, a court heard during her two-week trial.
The OnlyFans model made around $54,000 a year on the platform.
Although White called for an ambulance just minutes after the incident she lied and told investigators that Lewis had stabbed himself.
She told the police “I did not stab Bradley,” before being arrested on suspicion of murder.
The victim was rushed to a nearby hospital where he died hours later from a single stab wound to his chest. An autopsy later revealed that the knife blade had penetrated his heart.
During her trial, White insisted to jurors that the fatal attack was a mistake and she had only meant to “shock and scare” him by picking up the knife after a night of heavy drinking at a pub following their breakup.
White said “We were arguing, and he was pushing me, and were in the hallway. I went into the kitchen, and I saw the knife on the side.”
“Picked it up and walked back towards Brad. I went over to him to shock him, to scare him with the knife and before I knew it, I had stabbed him,” she added.
She also added: “I picked up that knife in anger and upset but I didn’t want to hurt him or kill him.”
Jurors heard the night of violence unfolded during a rough period in her life because she’d recently lost a pregnancy and discovered that Lewis had allegedly cheated on her.
White denied lying about the stabbing to protect herself, she said: “I was scared. I was worried about what was going to happen to me, to Brad and the family … Just wish I had told the truth from the beginning.”
White will serve at least 18 years before she is eligible for parole.
