A young woman who was jailed for an extraordinary act of revenge on the woman she blamed for almost destroying her parents’ marriage has defiantly insisted: ‘I’m not sorry and never will be sorry.’
Eleanor Brown, 26 – with the help of her mother and sister – posted naked images of her father’s sometime mistress on an escort website which saw her receive a three year jail term.
But following her release she has posted a series of statements indicating that she has no regrets over her attack on her father Geoff’s former lover.
The affair between Geoff Brown, a former police officer, and his mistress was discovered when Eleanor was just 14-years-old but 12 years later the fling came back to haunt them.
Geoff’s wife Sarah, who still held resentment towards the woman who almost destroyed her marriage, sent sexual images of the woman to her daughter.
Eleanor then used the photos to create a profile on a sex-for-sale site offering sexual services for £5 and overnight stays for £10 causing the woman’s phone to blow up with messages.
In October 2024, Eleanor was jailed for three years with the judge claiming she had shown ‘staggering’ lack of remorse and exhibited ‘vindictive, selfish and vengeful behaviour’.
Now having been released from jail after serving half her sentence Eleanor, who said she was ‘put in prison for a joke’, claims she still has no regrets about sharing the images.

She said: ‘If I could turn the clocks back the only thing I’d do differently is put my phone in the bin. I would just bin the phone, that phone has got me in so much trouble.
‘But I am not remorseful. I do not hold any remorse in my body. I wouldn’t do it again – your nudes are all safe – but I am definitely not remorseful.’
Eleanor added in a video on TikTok: ‘I think the moral of the story is that I am not sorry, never will be sorry, will never do it again.
‘And 1768906515 I’ve got a job, got a house, got a nice fella, got good friends, got a good family.’
The advert Eleanor had put on the so-called Beaver Street website was purportedly offering sexual services and included a picture of the mistress.
She included the number of the woman’s husband who received 14 texts and eight calls from prospective clients in the space of half an hour of the ad being posted.
The drama around the historic affair had been reignited after Eleanor’s mother Sarah had seen the mistress’ husband had set up a new business, which had become a success.
Eleanor, egged on by her sister and mother, then began bombarding the businesses social media pages calling the man’s wife a ‘home-wrecking s**g and a tramp.’
She then WhatsApped the woman’s husband a link to the Beaver Street ad along with a link to the Celine Dion song ‘It’s All Coming Back To Me Now’ in reference to his wife’s affair.

The couple eventually called the police, leading to Eleanor’s sentencing and her sister Sophie was sacked from her patrol officer job with West Yorkshire Police.
Now released from prison, Eleanor has started sharing videos about why she chose to share the videos at the time as well as the conditions inside HMP New Hall prison for women.
Eleanor has made a series of allegations claiming the prison system in the UK is ‘absolutely f***ed’ and that there are ‘men in women’s prisons’.
In one clip she said: ‘The thing that shocked me the most that I will never shut up about is that we have men in women’s prisons.
‘Men but they just have a wig on and then they are female. So we have that in women’s prisons.
‘I am already traumatized in prison then I’ve got a bloke telling me he’s a woman.’
Telling more stories of her life behind bars she claimed some of the women, who were HIV positive in the prison, would chase other inmates around with their sanitary towels.
On other occasions she claims inmates who had been told they could not use the toilet then would defecate on the floor ‘in front of 70 women’.
Eleanor went on to claim that some of the staff in the prison were ‘absolutely vile’ recalling one male prison officer who on Christmas Eve walked down the halls of her wing loudly singing It Will Be Lonely This Christmas.
‘He was getting a kick out of that, he was buzzing,’ she said. ‘That’s the kind of person working there.’

She explained: ‘The women in prison were sound, never had a problem with any of them. Obviously there are idiots that you don’t get on with or like but I never, ever had a problem.
‘It was staff. The prison system is absolutely f***ed. There is no rehabilitation, the staff are absolutely vile.
‘Not all of them but some of them. Nobody sticks to any policies, nobody wants to be challenged, it’s absolutely mental.’
She also claimed that one of the prison’s governors and his prison officer wife would bring their own laundry into the prison to wash it there, using the ‘public’s money’ to do so.
Eleanor said: ‘There is also a governor at Newhall that is married to a prison officer and every day they would come in with bags and bags and bags of washing – bedding, dog clothes, their clothes, whatever you can think of and they sit all day doing their washing.
‘So you’ve got public money being used to do the governor’s washing. And these are the people that run these places.’
Eleanor was released from prison earlier this year and now has a new job, house and a new relationship.
While in jail she had spent the initial weeks of her sentence in HMP New Hall before being moved to a woman’s open prison called HMP Ashkam.
Eleanor said following the court case she thought she would have only been in jails for a few weeks, rather than a few years.
She had originally denied two counts of disclosing private sexual imagery, but changed her plea to guilty halfway through her trial.

But Judge Alex Menary gave her no credit for her guilty pleas because she indulged in the ‘ultimate act of brinkmanship’ by forcing her victims to give evidence.
He said: ‘You maximised their humiliation by forcing them to come to court to give evidence in front of a room full of strangers and the public gallery.’
Judge Menary said: ‘One of the most egregious and vindictive aspects of this case is that you took the time to draft a lengthy and vitriolic message to their daughter. You sought to drag her into your unhappy existence which was shameful.’
Her actions led the couple to disclose the woman’s affair for the first time. He jailed her for three years, saying she’d shown a ‘staggering’ lack of remorse and and exhibited ‘vindictive, selfish and vengeful behaviour’.
He said: ‘You were arrested and interviewed and were utterly unapologetic. The lack of remorse you showed was staggering. Acting in the way you have is totally devoid of any moral compass whatsoever.’
