It????????s the question that haunts Gemma Monk after her dream wedding gown was daubed with black paint???? -seconds before she was due to wed her childhood sweetheart. The mum-of-two was subjected to the spiteful??????? revenge??????? attack witnessed by horrified wedding guests invited to see Gemma and Ken Monk tie the knot at Oakwood House Register Office in Maidstone. Antonia Eastwood, who is married to Gemma????????s older brother, Ashley, fled the venue, leaving her splattered victim in tears. Remarkably, Gemma, 35, pulled herself together, scrubbed her face and body in a changing cubicle and borrowed a dress fetched by an usher to marry her partner of more than 20 years. She told KentOnline: ???????We had waited for that day for so long. Nothing was going to stop me. ???????She was determined that the wedding was not going to happen ???????I did not think twice, I would have walked down the aisle in my knickers and with black paint over my face if I had to.??????? Gemma was speaking on Wednesday after Eastwood, 49, who now lives in Manchester, was sentenced at Maidstone Crown Court for two offences of criminal damage. The court was told that the bill for repairs and "loss of revenue" at Oakwood House was believed to exceed ????5,000. Neither Eastwood nor her husband were invited to the nuptials following an ongoing feud which flared up after their wedding, which was a year before the Monks were married. Gemma said that she had been wrongly accused of ???????trying to trip up??????? Eastwood during her wedding to Ashley in Dover in September 2023. The relationship between the two couples has since soured despite Ken once being Ashley????????s best friend, who introduced him to????Gemma when she was 14. The Monk????????s
