Natasha is giving the money to raised from the sales to Women’s Aid and Samaritans – charities she describes as “close to her heart”.
The office worker is currently at home with her parents in Monmouthshire.
She said: “I don’t think Andy Powell knows who he really is, he’s built a character to fool everyone who knows him and I fell for it.
“I wouldn’t want anyone else going through what I have been through, I’ve been holding up my wedding dress, thinking of the future we had planned – destroyed.”
