EXCLUSIVE: Sarah Jemirifo tells how she overcame horrifying neglect and poverty to become a successful fashion entrepreneur who dreams of Katie Price wearing her designs
Fashion brand owner Sarah Jemirifo, 54, from Colchester, Essex, designs show-stopping gowns, but her early life was a world away from the glamorous career she now enjoys. Her true rags to riches story – involving abandonment, bigamy and child cruelty – is an inspiration to anyone who wants to transform their fortunes. Here, she tells her story…
We were never given an explanation, but when I later found a suitcase full of her clothes, photos and documents, I had a sudden realisation that Mum wasn’t coming back. The maid soon moved into our home and, over the years, two more “wives” followed. By then, Dad had a total of 21 kids. He was obsessed with women and they took him for everything they could get.
A fight for survival I’d spend all my time hanging around neighbours in the hope they’d feed me. At weekends, Dad would force us to hunt for snakes and lizards with him, which we’d bring home to cook. That repulses me now, but when you’re so hungry, you’ll eat what your body needs. Again, I ate mouldy leftovers as my family settled down to the generous meal I’d cooked for them. My stomach hurt so much – I constantly had food poisoning and would notice worms when I went to the toilet. I was malnourished but never got to see a doctor.
