Paedo teacher Jeremy Forrest, 42, kisses and hugs new girlfriend 15 years his junior in park after ditching second wife
PAEDO teacher Jeremy Forrest has been spotted kissing and hugging his new girlfriend in a park.
The 42-year-old former maths tutor shared a public display of affection with 27-year-old Jessica Amos at a park in Kent.
He is thought to have met Jessica when she began working in his team at a bakery owned by his cousin.
The lovebirds – who both wore glasses and dressed casually – were spotted staring into each other’s eyes before sharing a smooch.
Forrest was then seen walking hand in hand with Jessica as they shared a laugh together.
In April, Forrest was seen out shopping for underwear and summer clothing with Jessica.
In 2012, Forrest, then 30, triggered an international manhunt when he disappeared with a pupil, aged 15, from Eastbourne, East Sussex.
He was sentenced to five-and-a-half years in jail and placed on the sex offender register for life after being found guilty of abducting and having sex with the pupil.
Police found them in Bordeaux, France.
Forrest was wed at the time, but was ditched by first wife Emily after the scandal emerged.
He got hitched again after being released from prison — where he trained as a baker — and had been living with his second wife in Canterbury before falling for Jessica.
He has now left the marital home.
Forrest, who is also the front man in a rock band, is now believed to be living with his brother and sister-in-law close to the shop in Sidcup, Kent.
A close source told The Sun previously told how he had fallen for Jessica a few months ago.
They had been keeping their romance under wraps because of their positions at work and “the fact he is married”.
The source added: “Jeremy leads the confectioners, so effectively, he was Jessica’s superior.”
A member of staff at J Ayre bakery confirmed Forrest had left his wife and said: “He is divorcing. He’s met someone else.”
Forrest and his new partner — who reportedly had no knowledge of his dark past — are said to have spent months sneaking away from work for secret romantic liaisons.
He allegedly reassured her he was planning on divorce.
But rumours of their affair have caused turmoil at the family bakers, with managers holding a meeting and suggesting Jessica move to another part of the business.
However, she reportedly decided she could no longer work there and quit her job.
Forrest was sacked from another bakers in 2023 after bosses discovered his past.
The firm said the truth came as a shock to their close-knit team.
