Ex man who dumped her for Ukrainian refugee ‘wouldn’t have him back in a million years’

He welcomed the dumped girlfriend of the British man who dumped her for a Ukrainian refugee into their home after Putin’s invasion.

Tony Garnett, 30, dumped his 10-year-old partner Lorna Garnett, 22, for Sofiia Karkadym, just 10 days after she arrived at their home in Bradford.

Just four months later, the guard now claims he broke up with Sofia and threw her out of their rented house, after accusing her of not being able to handle alcohol, using a knife to damage a wall and his relationship with his relationship with his two daughters.

Lorna, the mother of Tony’s two children, has now told her friends she “knew it would end in disaster for them” – but was surprised it happened so quickly.

She can’t speak about Tony publicly due to legal proceedings, but The sun reported that she told her friends she wouldn’t take him back “in a million years.”

She added: “He threw so much away. He can’t see me because of a restraining order and he hasn’t seen the kids. But it’s hard to feel sympathy.’

A friend reportedly said that Lorna has hurt Tony’s actions but has remained strong and that “her entire focus has been on the kids.”

Tony Garnett, 30, left his 10-year-old partner for Ukrainian refugee Sofiia Karkadym, 22, after living with them for 10 days. They broke up, MailOnline can reveal

Tony has said: ‘I made a mistake getting into a relationship with Sofia’

In an exclusive interview with MailOnline, Tony revealed, “I’m 100 percent done with her. We’re done as a couple.’

Tony claimed things came to a head when they rowed Saturday night as they celebrated his 30th birthday at their home in Bradford, West Yorkshire. He said he eventually called the police after Sofia apparently damaged a wall, causing officers to visit the address.

Tony told MailOnline how he had grown “tired” of what he described as her irrational behavior during the four and a half months they had been together.

He said, “I can’t take her abuse or anger any longer.

“I left Lorna and my two children for her and I did everything I could to help her keep us together.

“I’ve worked so hard to make this relationship work. I knew we would look like twins if we broke up because we have a media profile and all the attention that has been put on us on television and on the internet.

“I also really felt sorry for her. She left her home and her country at war and knew no one here.

‘Yes, I felt and thought I was in love with her. But there’s a side to her that I just can’t stand any longer. She gets angry and aggressive.

He claimed: “Saturday night she grabbed a knife and stabbed into the wall several times.

“It really scared me and I had no choice but to call the police. That doesn’t make me happy at all. But I was concerned about my safety. ‘

The quarrel arose when two other Ukrainian refugees – Sofiia Rastorhuieva and her boyfriend Illia Tronevych – stayed with the couple.

They had moved in with Tony and Sofia after he saw a desperate call from them on Facebook asking for housing.

The heavily tattooed Tony added: ‘I made a mistake getting into a relationship with Sofia.

“Like I said before, my relationship with Lorna was already over and I was really unhappy.

“But this wasn’t the right thing for me. I tried to help her. I really.

“I didn’t let her down and even messaged her mom to help her out using Google Translate.

She may be suffering from PTSD. But she’s from Kiev, where there hasn’t been much war.

“I hope she finds a safe place to live and is in a happier place. But she’s not for me.’

Tony, who has faced a barrage of online abuse over his relationship with Sofia, said he would soon be looking for a new home and also separate from the other Ukrainian refugees.

He said Sofia had sent him a series of messages since the altercation saying she loved him and begging for reconciliation.

But he said he told her he didn’t want her back because he’d already given her “chance after chance after chance.”

Tony said he accused her of “ruining” his 30th birthday.

He claimed that he told her that he would contact the municipality and the Ministry of the Interior to try and find her new housing.

Tony and Lorna first took Sofia in after applying to be part of the government’s refugee program because they wanted to help people who had fled war-torn Ukraine

The couple made plans to visit Sofia’s family in Ukraine so Tony can formally ask her father for his daughter’s hand. Tony has said their relationship is over

But Tony grew impatient about how long the process was taking and joined Facebook groups where Ukrainians were looking for sponsors.

He made contact with Sofiia through one of the groups and she arrived in the UK on May 4 and settled in Bradford with him and Lorna and their daughters aged three and six.

Tony told how we “just clicked” and immediately clicked very well, partly because he spoke Slovak, which is comparable to Ukrainian.

The two began chatting in a language Lorna didn’t understand, and stayed up to watch TV after she went to bed and regularly went to the gym together.

They both said that while they were “great together” at this point, “it was just that” and “innocent.”

But eventually “they found excuses to touch and rub together” and things got tense in the house.

Tony said he would return home to cook meals prepared by Sofiia, who would tell him how “lucky Lorna was to have him.”

Lorna was upset about the situation that she finally asked Sofiia to leave the family’s house just ten days after she arrived

But she was shocked when Tony told her: ‘If she goes, I go’.

The new couple eventually moved in with Tony’s parents before finding their own place and starting the process of applying for Sofia’s permanent visa.

Tony said at the time, “I’m so sorry for what Lorna is going through, this wasn’t her fault and it wasn’t about something she did wrong.”

Sofia added: “As soon as I saw him, I fell for him. It’s gone really fast, but this is our love story. I know people will think badly of me, but it happens. I saw how unhappy Tony was.’

The couple later spoke of their hopes of getting married and having children of their own, once Tony reversed his vasectomy.

He told MailOnline: ‘I want to propose to this beautiful lady’

Sofia said, “We plan our lives together. I want to be a mother. I want to have children.

“I’m a young woman so it can wait a few years and I hope Tony can reverse his vasectomy so we can be a family together.”

When their ill-fated relationship made headlines, Tony revealed that he’d had a torrent of abuse on social media over his decision to leave his childhood home.

He even spoke of his hopes of starting a pop career after recording a rap about their experiences.

Tony also insisted that his relationship with Lorna was already on the rocks before he met Sofiia.

One of Lorna’s friends shared in May how the now single mother was “devastated.”
