It’s all lies – and particularly hurtful as I was in an abusive relationship before. That boyfriend hit, kicked and threatened me.

There is no abuse in my relationship now and we live in a calm, loving home.
My partner is distraught but we can’t find out who has said this about me. We are worried about them going to social services about me.
