The husband of a teacher who spent the night with a 16-year-old pupil has told how she seduced the boy as revenge after he had an affair.
Bernadette Smith, 35, narrowly avoided a prison sentence this week after confessing her infatuation with her student Gary Ralston.
The court heard how she called the boy into her classroom at Banockburn High School in Stirling, and confessed her feelings for him. The pair later kissed passionately in a park, and spent the night in bed, where Smith wore just jeans and a bra.
Now Brian Smith, 35, has revealed how his wife, with whom he has three children, told him she seduced the boy as punishment for his affair in 2004.
'She said I deserved it, that this was payback. I’ve hit a brick wall trying to explain or understand it', he told the Daily Record.
'I maybe could have understood if she had gone with another teacher, or a neighbour, to get back at me. But not a boy, never. Not someone in her care.'
He told how his wife disappeared for a night with the boy, and sent him a text telling him their relationship had to end.
She then switched off her phone, leaving him to desperately try and track her down. She came home the next day while he was getting their children ready for school and confessed the affair.
His wife was later arrested and taken to court, where this week she admitted engaging in sexual activity with a pupil while in a position of trust.
