Katie Piper acid attacker Stefan Sylvestre ‘walks FREE and immediately takes new wife to posh £100-a-night hotel’
Stefan Sylvestre, 30, spent his first weekend as a free man in a posh £100-a-night hotel in Guildford, Surrey, with his new wife
STRICTLY star Katie Piper’s acid attacker took his new wife to a posh £100-a-night hotel just days after he walked free, it is claimed.
Stefan Sylvestre, 30, was released from jail on Wednesday after serving nine years following the attack which left 35-year-old Katie permanently scarred.
And he immediately whisked mum-of-one Danielle Burke to the four-star Angel Hotel in Guildford, Surrey, for a romantic weekend, according to .
She apparently posted pictures of the pair enjoying their evening together and uploaded a photo of him sleeping with the caption: “The husband love of my life."
MailOnline claims Danielle also shared images of their luxury hotel room and selfies of them in bed together before adding: “I love you.”
The website reports Stefan and Danielle got hitched during an Islamic ceremony at Highpoint Jail in Stradishall, Suffolk.
When approached by the website, he denied being Stefan but was told he looked very similar to the acid attacker.
He then replied: “F***ing hell, he’s a handsome dude then.”
Stefan, from Shepherd’s Bush, West London, was given a life sentence in 2009 for the attack and was told he would serve a minimum of six years.
Katie — who has been given extra security by Strictly bosses — suffered horrific injuries in the sulphuric acid attack that left her permanently scarred.
She was left fighting for life after obsessive steroid-fuelled martial arts fan ex Daniel Lynch arranged for Sylvestre to throw the corrosive liquid in March 2008.
In court, Lynch and Sylvestre were told by Judge Nicholas Browne QC they were "the face of pure evil".
Katie, 35, had to wear a plastic mask after the 2008 attack and needed 40 operations to treat her burns.
Last week she revealed she is using medication to “stay calm” after finding out Sylvestre was being released from jail – on her birthday.
She shared an inspiring message on Instagram after he was let loose and wrote: “Go within every day and find the inner strength so that the world will not blow your candle out."

Captioning the emotional post, mum-of-two Katie wrote: "Thank you for all the messages, birthday wishes and encouragement for tonight, very kind of you all.
"Using mediation to stay calm and centred today. See you on the ballroom floor tonight".
Katie became the latest celebrity to leave Strictly on Saturday and fans were furious after she was sent home while disgraced pair Seann Walsh and Katya Jones advanced following their drunken snog behind their partners' backs.
