A Catford man found guilty of stalking ex-Eastenders actress, Brooke Kinsella, has been given a 26 week jail sentence.

Paul Mason of Farley Road in Catford was given a 26 week jail sentence at Bromley Magistrates Court today (January 19).

Mason was found guilty of stalking Miss Kinsella after obtaining her mobile number through a website and sending her messages like, "you will be my wife and "your wedding dress is ready pumpkin".

He also sent personal messages to the actress over different social media accounts which he continuously set up and even visited the grave of Miss Kinsella's brother.

As well as the jail sentence, Mason has been given a permanent restraining order from Miss Kinsella, banning him from ever making contact with the actress.

Mason is also banned from going to Finsbury Library and entering the N1 area of London.
