JILTED rat groom Vince Morse last night begged EastEnder Jessie Wallace to
take him back and confessed: “Sordid sex fantasies have ruined my life.”
Vince issued his plea as it emerged he and fuming Jessie talked yesterday for
the first time since she axed their wedding last Monday.
He said he now rues the day he sent a saucy snap of the soap star to ex-flame
Karen Short in a drink-fuelled bid to coax her into a THREESOME
with Jessie.
Catering boss Vince, speaking about the bust-up for the first time, told a
pal: “I had this fantasy and I was really drunk.
“Me and Jessie had had a silly row like many couples do. I was angry and tried
to make my fantasy a reality by sending Karen that picture.
“I was showing off and when you’re drunk you do all sorts of stupid things.
“It looks like it’s destroyed the love of my life. It was probably the most
stupid thing I’ve ever done. I’m an idiot. My sordid sex fantasies have
ruined my life.”
Vince, 50, said: “A lot of men have fantasies involving their wives and
girlfriends but they keep it in their minds.
“It would never have come true. There was no way in a million years that
Jessie would be involved in something like that. She knew nothing. It was
purely in my head and I will regret this for the rest of my life.”
Vince’s three-year relationship with Karen, 47, ended in 2005.
But the couple kept in touch and had a brief tryst last December, about the
time he started dating Jessie.
Jessie, 39 fiery Kat Moon on TV called off the wedding
just hours before the service after Vince admitted sending Karen a sexy
topless picture of the actress in a black basque.
Vince told his friend: “I enjoyed the attention from Karen and had a great
relationship with her.
“I was just feeling sorry for myself and needed an ego boost. I guess I wanted
to prove to myself that it was still there. How stupid was that?”
He said: “Jessie knew nothing of what had gone on with Karen. It was a bit of
excitement. I wanted to have my cake and eat it.”

Vince said he would do anything to win back Jessie who also called
off a trip to Greece that would have been the honeymoon. Pals said last
night there IS still hope for the relationship.
The couple’s phone conversation was said to be “strained” as Vince begged
Jessie to forgive him.
But one pal said: “For the first time there is a little glimmer that she may
have him back.
“It’s a long way to go. But while everyone thought it was definitely over, now
there is a maybe.”
Vince told his pal: “Jessie is the only woman I want. I’ve never felt the way
I feel about Jessie with anyone else.
“It makes me sick inside to think that I’ve been so bloody stupid and caused
her so much pain, upset and heartache.
“I’d do anything to win her back and I just hope she will come round and see
it for what it was. I’m a complete idiot.
“I accept she doesn’t want to marry me because she always said trust was the
most important thing to her and I betrayed that. But we have so much to sort
out.
“At least she’s speaking to me now and I hope and pray that I can win her
back. She means more to me than anything.”
Vince said Jessie had told him the wedding WOULD go ahead even though
she was stunned to learn about the humiliating picture. But the star changed
her mind on the morning of the ceremony. She was terrified of breaking the
news to Vince herself and asked a pal to make the call.
Vince said: “I got the message around 10am from a mutual friend. I felt sick
and just broke down. I cried and cried.
“The truth is I think she may have had cold feet for the last month or so and
this stupid, meaningless mistake tipped her over the edge.” Friends say
Vince is now “unrecognisable” and sobs all the time.
The pair had already started planning how to spend the £400,000 for allowing a
glossy magazine to cover the wedding.
The close pal said: “They were talking about buying a property outright.
Instead there are a load of cancellation fees to settle.”
Jessie ditched her £3,500 wedding flowers yesterday just 24 hours after having
them specially delivered to her Surrey home. The Sun revealed she wanted to
“watch them die” like her doomed love.
Karen last night warned Jessie not to take Vince back. She said: “Leopards
never change their spots. He can’t be faithful.”
