Julie testified that June did not approve of Jeremy's relationship with Julie.
June offered to buy Julie a property in Essex or London. Julie was offended and rejected the offer. But I thought Julie was a gold digger ?
Julie was a teenager when she met Jeremy. Both working at Sloppy Joe's I believe, in low paid jobs. If she was looking for a meal ticket, Jeremy was not the answer.
Things changed slightly over the next couple of years. Jeremy being given a cottage, car, free petrol and a job. However he was only given a farmers wage for working long hours. Not exactly glamorous for Julie.
Rather than live off Jeremy, Julie lived in digs in Lewisham. Working towards being a teacher. Something she is now. A respected one as well.
She had no choice but to act as lookout when Jeremy robbed the caravan site. A year earlier she was involved in Susan Battersby's minor cheque book fraud. Done more for laugh than to live a life of luxury. Teenagers, tut.
After the massacre and in a state of shock she stayed with Jeremy for one month. Often because Jeremy asked her to. But they soon spilt, Julie was not dragged off Jeremy, despite his new found fortune
When approaching the police, she had no idea the NOTW would approach her. But they did, as well as approach Jeremy.
Julie also did have to approach the police. They knew nothing about Susan Battersby's minor cheque book fraud and Jeremy's caravan break in.
Julie testified that the break up was gradual and mutual process. Jeremy also said the relationship had been in decline for several months.
Does everyone agree the perception of Julie as a gold digger is wrong ?
