A showjumping trainer who hurled petrol and tried to burn down her ex-partner’s home after he tried to break up with her has been jailed.

Sarah Jones, 38, moved into Chris Cummings’s home with her two teenage daughters after the pair met at a horse show.

Chris, 37, now says letting them live in his £600,000 North Yorkshire farmhouse was the worst decision of his life.

After five years of the relationship, Chris had decided the spark from their relationship had gone and tried to break up with her, but Jones refused to move out.

He eventually called the police, and changed the locks as she and her children left, The Mirror reports.

Chris, who owns a high-end horsebox company, said: ‘I bought my property myself on the back of my hard work building up my business, she had no claim to anything here.

‘But she refused to leave. I had no choice but to involve the police and it was only at that point that she accepted she had to leave, and when she did I had the locks changed.

‘Sarah would not let it go and for between six and nine months she did everything she could to make my life a misery.’

But Jones then set out to make Chris’s life difficult, including breaking into his farmhouse and sending him threatening messages.

He also said she spoke to his customers and spread false information about his business which he said he has still recovered from.

Chris even claimed she stole his vacuum cleaner and has taken his post.

In one terrifying incident he found Jones throwing petrol around his horsebox just before she was about to set it alight.

Chris said: ‘You can’t imagine the effect it has on your life when someone is determined to try to intimidate you and ruin your business.

‘I lived in constant anxiety about what she might do next.’

Jones was jailed for 18 months after she admitted burglary, theft and harassment at Teesside crown court.
