KILLER Jihad Al-Shamie secretly “married” an NHS nurse who converted to Islam, a source said.
Elizabeth Davis, 35, is said to have told her family about him only after the synagogue attack.
Al-Shamie’s first marriage reportedly fell apart six months ago.
The Sun on Sunday cannot confirm if mum-of-five Elizabeth, of Bolton, was legally his second wife.
A source said: “Liz converted to Islam four years ago.
“Her conversion caused tensions with her family, they say she became a totally different person after that.

“She stopped communicating with relatives and friends.
“It was like she had been brainwashed.
“The family only found out that she had got married to Al-Shamie after the synagogue attack on Thursday.
“The family are horrified that she has been involved with someone like that.
“It’s possible she got married to him in an Islamic law ceremony.”
Al-Shamie was on bail after being arrested on suspicion of rape and was due to appear in court.
