Looks are so deceptive - they appear to be a handsome couple with a good life. Very sad situation

Maddie worked within my company and I received an email yesterday stating that she had "died in tragic circumstances". I didn't imagine at the time of reading the email that something this terrible had happened, I'd assumed maybe an accident. I am so incredibly heartbroken for her family and friends and hope that they will at least get some answers about how or why this tragic event happened.

Also confirms he is deceased, unless I missed it earlier I thought officially they say it would be a few days before an ID.

So did I .I think the article has been updated and now includes this statement.

Senior investigating officer Detective Inspector Nicole Main said tonight: "While we await a formal identification of Benjamin, we have taken the step of naming him today with the support of his family.

"We understand he and Maddie had been in a relationship, and are working to establish as much as is possible about the circumstances in which they died.

"This is an incredibly sad case, and we ask that the grief and privacy of both families are respected by the media as they mourn their loved ones.

"They are overwhelmed with sadness and have asked that they be left in peace at this terribly distressing time."

He was quite a bit older than her, especially if they'd been together 2 years. I know age is only a number but guessing him having 4 kids is quite different to the life most 22 year olds are living.

Very!
Poor Maddie. My guess would be he was a controlling guy and she wanted to leave him.

Beloved father? Beloved ex? I’m sorry, but he’s shown his true colours here. Utterly tragic and I couldn’t be more sorry for anyone who fell under his spell while he was living. His poor, poor children. I hope they have as much support as they need xx

Boyfriend, 41, who killed lover, 22, then himself was 'woman-hating sex addict'



Ben was prolific. He was a monster and a woman-hating sex addict.

A Former Pal Said Of Green
A former pal said of Green: “I knew him for a year and there would be hundreds of women in that time.

'He was a monster'
“I have never known anything like it. He would be having sex with eight women at the same time while married with kids.

“He had homes across the country that he would rent, staying in Kettering, Liverpool and other places.

“Ben was prolific. He was a monster and a woman-hating sex addict.”


The former friend said many of Green’s dates were in their late teens.

He added: “Ben liked women much younger than him.

“He had zero respect for his conquests and would be so rude to them.

RIP Maddie!

So awful for both families

...a coroner heard today (Thursday, July 7) how Maddie Durdant-Hollamby’s short life was extinguished by her older boyfriend after she had gone to do the right thing and break up with him face-to-face rather than by text.
Maddie told friends how she was nervous about ending the relationship, and the court heard how within minutes of arriving at his smart new home in Slate Drive, Kettering, she had been killed by Ben Green, who then stabbed himself and died on the kitchen floor.
