Former Labour MP Simon Danczuk frolics in hotel swimming pool with his 28-year-old Rwandan fiancee 

He may be almost 30 years her senior but former Labour MP Simon Danczuk was caught looking like a love-struck teenager frolicking in a hotel swimming pool with his new bride-to-be.

The 56-year-old recently announced he is getting married for the third time, to Claudine Uwamahoro, a 28-year-old beauty therapist he met on a business trip to her home country of Rwanda.

Despite getting together in March, the couple have spent little more than a few weeks together and have mostly communicated through phone and video calls.

But – as these exclusive pictures show – they appeared delighted to finally be in each other’s company during a New Year break in the capital Kigali, where they plan to marry this summer.

Mr Danczuk was photographed lifting Ms Uwamahoro out of the water and kissing her tenderly. The pair drank cocktails and appeared to dance cheek to cheek in the pool. Later, they were seen laughing and joking, with Ms Uwamahoro attempting to push her fully clothed fiance into the water.

One onlooker said: ‘They looked very much in love. They were laughing and smiling and very much enjoying each other’s company. Simon is clearly besotted by Claudine and vice versa.’

Mr Danczuk took his two youngest sons, aged 14 and 12, with him on the trip so he could introduce them to Miss Uwamahoro.

Photographs posted on his Instagram feed show the boys with their father and his new lover enjoying New Year’s Eve at the Kigali Marriott Hotel and on safari at the Akagera National Park. They also went on a boat trip to see hippos around Lake Ihema and attempted to cross a 500ft-long bridge suspended 230ft above a ravine.

The impending nuptials are the latest chapter in the colourful love life of the ex-MP.

His ten-year marriage to Sonia Rossington, mother to his eldest children George 25, and 20-year-old Mary, ended in accusations that he ‘bullied’ her into sex – which he has always vehemently denied. Mr Danczuk then married Karen Burke, named the ‘selfie queen’ for posting pictures of her cleavage online.

Their three-year relationship ended amid acrimony in 2015 when it was reported he had had sex with a 22-year-old woman in his constituency office.

After the split, he was caught sending inappropriate texts, describing himself as ‘horny’, to a prospective employee aged 17. The messages led to his suspension from the Labour Party.

Mr Danczuk later admitted younger women were his ‘Achilles heel’ and that he had had counselling for sex addiction.

But his latest lover has said she is unconcerned about the age gap. ‘It is about the person I love being the right man for me,’ Ms Uwamahoro said.
