Appeal judges have added three years to a 12-year jail term handed to a boxing coach who admitted causing the death of a pregnant Hollyoaks star Frankie Jules-Hough in a motorway crash.
Three appeal judges in London on Friday increased Adil Iqbal’s jail term to 15 years after concluding the original sentence was unduly lenient.
They heard that Iqbal, 22, filmed himself driving at speeds of up to 123mph before losing control of his father’s BMW car on the M66 in Bury, Greater Manchester, in May.
Ms Jules-Hough, 38, died following a crash after Iqbal filmed himself speeding in the vehicle before it crashed into Ms Jules-Hough’s Skoda Fabia, which had pulled over on the hard shoulder with a tyre puncture.
The mother-of-two, who was 17 weeks pregnant with her first daughter, Neeve, suffered fatal brain injuries in the crash and died two days later. The soap star‘s son and nephew were also seriously injured in the collision.
