Jlloyd Samuel's secret wife sent public request to his widow after Premier League footballer died in car crash

Jlloyd Samuel's secret wife sent public request to his widow after Premier League footballer died in car crash

The former Premier League footballer is said to have lived a double life

The secret wife of Jlloyd Samuel sent a public request to his widow after his death.

The Premier League footballer died in car crash back in 2018 with dental records required to identify his burnt body.

And the secrets which came out following the tragedy have been dragged back up again as a documentary landed on Netflix at the beginning of this week (3 June).

Originally broadcast on ITV in 2022, The Footballer, His Wife, and the Crash, delves into the life of the former Aston Villa and Bolton Wanderers player.

As many will know, after Samuel’s death, his wife Emma then learned that while he’d been playing in Iran he’d also gone and got married to another woman.

She’d actually met the woman in Dubai, under the guise she was a ‘fortune teller’.

And Helia Sahimi, this secret wife, believes Samuel is still alive.

Following his death, she took to Instagram to share appeals for his return and how she was continuing to ‘look for him’.

On 9 March 2020, Sahimi shared a public request to Emma.

The documentary explains how some of his family knew about her but Emma, who shared three children with him, was not told.

Roughly translated, the post reads: ‏"It’s been 1 year, 10 months and 5 days since the accident and family and friends of Emma Pritchard are still insulting and threatening me with fake and real accounts.

"Just to make me stop looking for Jay. With the excuse of 'protecting the kids'. ‏ If she is protecting Jlloyd's kids give the DNA samples like she agreed at the inquest on 26/11/2019.

"Why would I give up on my husband’s life to make up for her short comings in motherhood? This is not my responsibility, but finding my husband is!

"‏P.S.1 Soon I will tell the story of the first time I met Emma Pritchard as a fortune teller. I hope they won’t mind the truth since I have been patient for too long!!!

"‏P.S.2 And also will be talking more about her habit of using the kids as excuses."

In other posts, Sahimi had continued this ask for Emma to give her the ‘DNA samples’ as she does not believe Samuel actually died and wants to look into it herself, separate to Emma.

“We will not give up if we do not test,” she writes, adding that they can’t ‘prove’ all of their claims.

LADbible has contacted Emma's team for comment.
