<\/p>\n

Who are Delroy Grant's ex-wives?<\/h2>\n

Janet Watson<\/h3>\n

Delroy Grant is understood to have met his first wife Janet Watson in 1975.<\/p>\n

They got engaged just two weeks later and married later that year, according to Crime + Investigation. <\/p>\n

The couple went on to have two children – Delroy Junior and Michael – but the marriage turned sour.<\/p>\n

Grant reportedly beat his wife and cheated on her with other women, and they divorced in 1979.<\/p>\n

Before meeting his second wife, Grant moved to Leicester where he met another woman whom he had two children with. <\/p>\n

Jennifer Edwards<\/h3>\n

When Grant and his girlfriend split, he moved back to London and met mother-of-two Jennifer Edwards.<\/p>\n

The couple moved in together in Brockley, south east London, where they looked after their two sons and Jennifer's two daughters from a previous marriage.<\/p>\n

Some time later, Jennifer, who worked as a classroom assistant and was a devoted Jehovah's Witness, was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.<\/p>\n

She eventually needed a wheelchair and Grant registered as her carer, alongside driving taxis at night. <\/p>\n

However, it was later revealed that Grant had used this job as a cover for carrying out his horrific attacks. <\/p>\n

Jennifer and her children left the house they shared with Grant on the day he was arrested and she has not spoken publicly since. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

What did Janet Watson say about Delroy Grant?<\/h2>\n

Janet was called to testify against her ex-husband at trial where he accused her of framing him, alleging she stole semen and saliva from him while they were together. <\/p>\n

In court, she described him as "evil", adding: "He\u2019s bad, he\u2019s not mad.<\/p>\n

"I know some people have said he must be mad to have done all those terrible things to those elderly people, but he\u2019s not mad, he knew what he was doing.<\/p>\n

"When police arrested him, I was totally shocked.<\/p>\n

"I hadn\u2019t heard from him or had anything to do with him for years.<\/p>\n

"Then suddenly he was back in my life because everyone wanted me to tell them about him."<\/p>\n

Janet also described being with Grant as "a living hell".<\/p>\n

"He would attack me in front of my children, beat me while I was pregnant and cheat on me with other women," she added. <\/p>\n
