A woman has told how her perfect relationship ended with her thuggish controlling boyfriend almost killing her when he stabbed her 11 times in a brutal attack.
Cynthi Dolgeová, from the Czech Republic, moved to Scarborough, North Yorkshire, with her then partner, Jack Sutton in 2021.
Shortly after arriving in the UK, their relationship worsened after Sutton’s paranoia became so oppressive, he was even checking Ms Dolgeová’s underwear when returned to the house.

Sutton, who was jailed for 16 years, attacked Ms Dolgeová because she ended their relationship due to his controlling nature and jealousy
Following the attack, Ms Dolgeová moved back home to the Czech Republic with her family. (Ms Dolgeová, is pictured here with her mother)
After initially finding it hard to speak publicly about her story Ms Dolgeová wants to show everyone the truth after seeing people stick up for her jealous attacker.
Ms Dolgeová and Sutton met in the Czech Republic when he was working there in April 2020, the couple fell in love and moved to England in February 2021.
She said: ‘In the beginning we were really in love.’
She claimed that everything started off ‘really nice’ between the pair – yet all of her friends were warning her his behaviour wasn’t right. He wouldn’t want her to meet with friends or family and accused her of sleeping with other men.
The 23-year-old says she was forced to stop talking to her best friend because of her ex-partner and he would even check her knickers after she went out.
Ms Dolgeová said she was too in love to see how his behaviour was wrong, adding: ‘I could never see it before but now thinking about, love is blind.’
They were supposed to stay in the UK for two months then move to Germany for Sutton’s work, but because of Brexit and trouble with visas the pair decided to stay in England.
Ms Dolgeová said: ‘I left everything for him including all my family, it was really hard for me and then after four months I found out he was cheating on me.
‘With Covid and being here alone we stayed together. He was always telling me if I break up with him he would kill himself and it would be my fault – it wasn’t easy to leave him.’
During summer 2021 Ms Dolgeová said she realised their relationship wasn’t ‘proper love’ but they stayed together despite her niggling feelings. One week before the attack the couple split up and Ms Dolgeová moved into her best friend’s house, Amy.
The ex-couple went for dinner together to ‘talk about stuff’ – but he took her ID without her realising at dinner because he knew she would need it.

Ms Dolgeová realised her ID was missing later that evening when she went for a drink with Amy and asked her ex for it back – but she says he said he would meet her half way with it and wanted to talk just them two. This is when the horrific attack took place.
On December 10 last year Ms Dolgeová was stabbed 11 times by Sutton, who was sentenced to 16 years in prison with an extended licence period of four years.
A kind-hearted neighbour and Amy shouted at Sutton to stop while phoning the police, but he continued.
Ms Dolgeová said: ‘I remember I didn’t felt any pain I was just really scared – I realised what was happening when the knife got stuck in my ribs and he couldn’t get it out. He was kicking my head like a ball. It was about 8 minutes until police came.
‘I was lying on the floor and he was saying I’m going to kill you. All I could say at this point was chill out we will sort it out. He tried to get me up but he couldn’t because I had been stabbed so he started beating me up again.’

Ms Dolgeová said she and Sutton, pictured, were initially happy until they moved to Scarborough and a planned move to Germany failed because of Brexit complications
Ms Dolgeová was taken to York hospital by police and a CT scan showed her lungs had partially collapsed and her liver had been punctured. Her injuries were classed as life-threatening and she was taken to Hull Royal Infirmary where her wounds were dressed and she was eventually discharged.
She said: ‘I’m proud of myself. For ages I couldn’t look at myself in the mirror because the scars reminded me of him but now I can do something and tell people.
‘I know he didn’t do it because he hated me, he did it because he loved me so much and realised he was losing me but didn’t want to.
‘I’m lucky to be alive, the mental abuse and what he was doing to me wasn’t normal. I feel like a lot of people know about domestic violence but the mental abuse you suffer is so much more, it hurts in a different way.
‘You can see a bruise from being physically hurt but you can’t see mental abuse.’
She added: ‘It’s hard, I really loved him – it’s scary to fall in love again or find another boyfriend.’
Ms Dolgeová has since moved back to the Czech Republic to be with her family.
