A mother who helped run a website selling fake autographs of celebrities including Princess Diana has been given a 42-week suspended prison term.

Louise Marney, 32, from Neath, bought photographs of famous people over the internet and sent them to a mystery man who then forged the signatures.

Marney, who made £13,000, was caught after a complaint to trading standards about a Sean Connery autograph.

Celeb Factory had dozens of fakes, Swansea Crown Court heard.

These included Elizabeth Taylor, Bob Hope, Mohammad Ali, Pele, Tony Blair, Margaret Thatcher, the Jackson Five, Simon Cowell and members of the A-Team.
