The unidentified woman is said to be seven months pregnant and has suffered health complications as a result of the now-viral video.

“This is the last thing she needs in her condition, it’s extremely upsetting,” someone close to the partner told MailOnline.

“This stupid video has affected her health, she was hospitalised at the weekend through stress. She fears it will bring on premature labour,” the person added.

Weirich was reportedly identified as the alleged man in the video after photographs on the prisoner’s Instagram show he has the same arm tattoo as the man featured in the illicit video.

He was sentenced to four and a half years for burglary dwelling and theft on June 7 at Kingston Crown Court.

Victims of his crimes have reportedly been left “fuming” at the prisoner’s alleged antics inside jail, sharing their shock at the clip with The Sun.

A householder — whose home was targeted by Weirich in January — said she was horrified when she heard about the sex tape, describing the alleged incident as “surreal”.

“This is not what we thought it meant to get hard time in prison,” she told the publication.

“It sounds like the prison officer is the only one being punished, too.”
