Visiting the spot where June's grave was going to be, Ella said: "This is stupid, it's just an empty hole you're not even in there. I know you wouldn't want me here but I had to, it wouldn't have been right for me to go in there.
"I don't want to hurt anyone, not again - even this is more than I deserve. I hope you find some peace now both of you... I am so sorry...
