Gran Iris Jones has branded her Egyptian toyboy ex-husband a ‘sewer-rat’ amidst their split.
Iris Jones, 83, became a national treasure after appearing on ITV's This Morning to chat about her then husband Mohamed Ibrahim after the pair got married in 2020.
They met on Facebook in 2019 and despite the age gap, the 37-year-old proposed to her after just 15 days of exchanging messages…talk about moving quickly, guys!

Speaking about her unconventional relationship, Iris told Fabulous Magazine: “He seemed genuine and interested in me, and I wondered why, the age gap, the fact he proposed in a message after 15 days of communicating on Facebook.
“But I was besotted by his charm and image, and then I met him in person and it was confirmed.
"I never expected to fall in love with someone 46 years younger than me, but I did. I adored everything about Mohamed," she said.
Despite a tricky visa process, Mohamed, from Ciaro, moved to the UK in November 2021 to be with Iris - but sadly, it wasn't meant to be.
While Iris says they used to have a ‘great sex life’, she has since realised she is no longer a ‘lovesick teenager’ and just wants a peaceful life with her new cat.
“But it became hard work. We used to have a great sex life but then, rather than making love, we ended up arguing all the time about anything and everything," she told Closer Magazine earlier this year, confirming their split.
"I can’t be doing with that. I’m not a lovesick teenager. I’m 83."
And it seems their split hasn't exactly been amicable either, with Mohamed claiming to the Mail Online that Iris used him as a ‘sex slave’, saying there were strict rules laid out as to when he could shower.
However, Iris has hit back in the interview, saying during her interview with Fabulous Magazine: “He is a lying toe-rag and a sewer-rat.”
Such a way with words Iris!
She continued: “He wasn’t my sex slave, he wasn’t a romantic man, he didn’t like closeness, romance, he didn’t like passion, no long lingering kisses.
“When it came to sex he was very ‘wham bam thank you ma’am,’ and then he’d turn over and go to sleep.
“For him to claim he was my sex slave is absurd. I’m not sex mad at all, if he didn’t touch me for a month it wouldn’t bother me.”
Iris also claimed that their marriage turned sour earlier this year when she told Mohamed she wanted her garden landscaped.
“Mohamed was mowing the lawn and I said ‘Don’t bother I’m going to get it landscaped anyway'," she explained.
But this apparently set off a chain of events where they rowed over cash - with him saying there was no need to splash out on a professional gardener.
“I said to him ‘It’s my money Mohamed’, but he didn’t listen."
