A husband who was having an affair died in a high-speed drink driving crash while taking his secret mistress home after a date, an inquest heard.
Father-of-two Kadeel Newby, 23, lost control of his Toyota Yaris while driving at 101mph without wearing a seat belt in a manner which was compared to The Stig from Top Gear.
Moments later, the car ploughed into railings, catapulting Mr. Newby and girlfriend Natasha Gregson out of the rear window.
She survived with a fractured skull and a laceration to her liver but Newby died later in hospital from multiple injuries.
The affair only came to light when Miss Gregson regained consciousness.
This week, Mr. Newby’s wife Korette, 26, was forced to listen to details of her husband’s six-day relationship with Miss Gregson at an inquest into his death in Bolton, Greater Manchester.
Mrs. Newby, who had married her husband in 2011, told the hearing that her husband’s behavior had been completely out of character and that she would ‘not judge his 24 years of life based on that’.
The hearing was told how the pair were driving on Chorley New Road in Horwich at 2 am on October 12.
Mr. Newby had earlier picked up Miss Gregson to take her out for the evening in Manchester.
In a statement, Miss Gregson who was not at the Bolton hearing at the request of Mrs. Newby said Mr. Newby had told her he was no longer with his wife.
She said: ‘I had been seeing a lad called Kadeel Newby and he told me he was separated from his ex and had been for about five months and had two children. I don’t normally go for guys with children.
