A mother-of-two has abandoned her young children to marry the penniless Tunisian lover she met on the internet.
Wendy Paduch told her children, Dylan, five, and Natasha, eight, that she was going away for a week's holiday - but three months later she has failed to return home.
They have begged for her to come back in time to celebrate Dylan's birthday next week.

But the 26-year-old recently responded with a message on her Facebook page: 'We are in love so f*** u all.'
Miss Paduch, from Grimsby, Lincolnshire, had started a relationship with unemployed Wajdi Jouini on the social networking site.
She flew out to meet him in Tunisia with a friend after packing just a few things for a seven-day trip.

She and her friend travelled to the remote rural town where her lover lived with his family in a run-down house and were welcomed with open arms.
But when it came to leave, Miss Paduch told her friend she had decided to stay.
She has since posted pictures on Facebook of her wedding to Mr Jouini and has attempted to defend her actions, claiming she is 'not a bad mom'.
But she has been slammed by her friends, who claim she has repeatedly promised to come home and then changed her mind.

Her mother Beryl Paduch, 59, told the Mirror: 'Her little boy's birthday is coming up and I want her to be there. He misses her and all he wants for his birthday is his mum.'
'A friend sent her £200 to come home last month but she didn't. I was getting frantic.
'I kept asking Wendy, "What about the kids?" but she's ask if it was OK to stay for another week. Then one week became two then three and still she didn't return.'
A spokesman for Humberside Police said they were looking into the case but added that Wendy had not been reported as a missing person.
