LOVE! Man used his body to shield fiancee from bullets during Tunisian massacre

When they say the words ‘I’ll take a bullet for
you”,it’s unimaginable that there are actually people
who would do that for their lovers…A British father
is fighting for life after being shot three times in the
stomach while trying to save his fiancee from
terrorist gunmen after they attacked a tourist resort
in Tunisia.
According to Daily Mail,Matthew James, 30, from
Cardiff, was staying at the Bellevue Hotel in Sousse
when extremists attacked the nearby beach, killing
37 and injuring 36.
His fiancee Saera Wilson, 26, has described how the
couple were sunbathing by the crystal blue waters
of the Mediterranean when the attack began.Miss
Wilson, who is believed to have one child by Mr
James and another from a previous relationship,
said her fiancee used his body as a human shield to
protect her as the attackers opened fire.
She said, despite being covered in blood from the
attack, he told her to run away, adding ‘tell our
children that their daddy loves them.’ She said
He took a bullet for me. I owe him my life
because he threw himself in front of me when
the shooting started.’He was covered in blood
from the shots but he just told me to run
away.’He told me: ‘I love you babe. But just go
– tell our children that their daddy loves
them.’It was the bravest thing I’ve ever known.
But I just had to leave him under the sunbed
because the shooting just kept on coming.
‘I ran back, past bodies on the beach to reach
our hotel. It was chaos – there was a body in
the hotel pool and it was just full of
blood.’You just can’t explain how terrible it
was. It was chaos with screaming and
gunshots. I’m just so glad Matthew is alive
because so many other people are dead.’
Engaged couple Saera and Matthew left children
Tegan, six, and Kaden, 14 months at home with their
family when they jetted out to Sousse on June 21
for a two week break.
Beautician Sarah told how they headed to the beach
as normal in the morning – with no idea of the
horror due to unfold.
‘We were just on the sunbeds, messing around
and having a nice time when we heard these
sounds.’The shooting had started and there was
a man with a gun opening fire all around. It is
hard to remember just exactly what was going
on.’I only saw the one man in dark clothing but
people were being shot.’Matthew put himself in
front of me then he was hit, he moved and the
man shot him again. Again he tried to move and
he was shot again.’He was shouting and blood
was pouring out all over. I was screaming and it
was chaos as more shots were coming out.’We
were down on the floor next to the sunbeds to
shelter but the shots just kept on coming. He
just told me to go, to look after our kids and
that he loved me.
