Emily Horne (born 9 December 1978[1] in York, UK) is best known for being a multi-time bigamist after her well publicised marriages to six men without legally divorcing any of them each time, and thus has been sentenced twice for bigamy, which lead to calls by the authorities on just how she was able to go unnoticed for so long. She is a former glamour model, escort and porn actress.
