A terminally-ill husband whose cheating wife was jailed for plotting his murder has revealed he has already forgiven her as he vowed to continue visiting her in prison.
Ray Weatherall said he still loves his wife Hayley, 32, despite her scheming with secret lover Glenn Pollard, 49, and his daughter Heather to kill him.
The trio were jailed this week after a string of attempts to murder Mr Weatherall, 53, including one instance in which they tried to blow him up in a heating explosion.
Mr Weatherall, of Ash near Canterbury in Kent, was oblivious of the secret affair between his wife and best friend of 20 years.
Despite a judge calling Mrs Weatherall 'cold and calculated' and 'impatient' for her husband to die, her husband claimed she was 'made out to be worse than she is'.

Speaking to Good Morning Britain, he said: 'I'd much love her to come home, but I know that she isn't going to, not in my lifetime.
'So I've got to deal with the future as it's fed to me now.
'She's always been a loving wife, really good mother so I don't think she's as bad as she's being made out to be as she never actually done anything.'
Mr Weatherall was diagnosed with brain cancer in August 2015 and the following year was given only 18 months to live.
Asked by a shocked Susanna Reid if he forgave his wife, he added: 'Yes, most definitely.
'She apologised for what she got herself tangled up in and there's not much we can do about it now.
'All I can do is continue to visit her and continue to take the children up to visit. I've already visited her last weekend.
'She knows how I feel and she's telling me that she still loves me and would love to be back home with her husband and children.'

Ray had been told he had months to live when Heather, who goes by the name Arthur, shot him in the face like a 'sniper' after a string of failed attempts on his life.
They included a swimming pool heater explosion which left him with second degree burns, drowning him while fishing and poisoning him with insulin.
Mr Weatherall remained ignorant that his wife and his best friend of 20 years were trying to kill him after they planned a new life together.
At their trial, Maidstone Crown Court was told the non-fatal shooting triggered a long and intricate Kent Police investigation, which uncovered a string of other unsuccessful attempts on the man's life, planned before and after the shooting.
Mr Weatherall told Good Morning Britain that Glenn had been the main instigator of the plot, and that his wife was 'dragged into it'.
He said: 'I'm disgusted with Glenn and his daughter. Glenn was most certainly the driver of it all. I'm disgusted that my wife for getting involved with it all.
'It was probably two or three months prior to me finding out what was actually going on. She started being a little bit cold towards me.
'Up until that point we never had any issues whatsoever. I still don't understand how she got involved in it all.'

Their schemes began unravelling in January after Ray's niece Emma Worsfold tipped off police that they were trying to kill Ray, after she learned of the affair.
Kent Police raided their homes and quickly recovered the bolt-action rifle that was used to shoot him.
Electrical devices were analysed and hundreds of messages were discovered between Glenn and Heather, including about how they planned to kill his love rival.

The jury was also told about other events that had threatened the victim's life between the summer of 2017 and the spring of 2018, which was just chalked up to accidents.
Mr Weatherall was blown up when his burner exploded, was set up to be drowned during a fishing trip with Pollard, and an incidence of suspected poisoning.
Glenn Pollard got life with a minimum of 17 years while the other two were jailed for life with a minimum of 15 years.
Heather Pollard was seen laughing in the dock with her father before the sentence was handed down.
Jurors heard treacherous Pollard had a gun license and 'brainwashed' his daughter - who was Mr Weatherall's great-niece - to fire the 'sniper' shot last November.
He was shot in the face at Sandwich Marina in Kent but survived when the bullet hit his right cheekbone.
Ray had been diagnosed with brain cancer in August 2015 and the following year was given only 18 months to live on to of daily insulin injections for his diabetes.
Ray and Glenn Pollard had been friends for more than 20 years and went shooting together.
It was only when he was shot in the face - the bullet passing through his right cheek and out of the left cheek - in November last year that the police became involved.
Even at the point of the shooting the trail remained cold until the affair was revealed in January this year.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
