A pedophile UK mum who had sex with two 13-year-old boys in her son’s bedroom while he was at school has been jailed.

Natalie Harris targeted the teens and sent them sexual messages on Snapchat before inviting them both over.

The 36-year-old had developed an “obsession for sex with young boys” and wanted “attention” following a break up.

Harris had sex with both boys for 40 minutes at her home in Hampshire, southeast England, while her son was in school.

The mum-of-six begged the victims to keep the liaison a secret but one of the boys filmed it.

After the video was circulated, Harris was identified through her distinctive tattoos and arrested.

She has now been jailed for four years after admitting four counts of engaging in sexual activity with a child.

The mum of one of the victims told Portsmouth Crown Court how her son’s childhood had been “taken away” by Harris.

She also said she had watched her son “fade away” as a result of the “awful nightmare”.

“My heart just breaks, I couldn’t have imagined this happening to my son — he is a child,” the mum added.

“Natalie has completely turned our family upside down.

“The worst thing about all of this is she has taken away his childhood and I will never forgive her.

“This will stay with us now for the rest of our lives.”

The court was told Harris, who has bipolar and multiple personality disorder, was suffering from a “manic episode” following her split.

She sent the boys a string of messages — saving one of the victims on her phone under the name “Rachel”.

After having sex with them both, she told the teen he “shouldn’t tell anyone” as she could go to prison.

But the boy bravely opened up to his mum — revealing how Harris had targeted him in November 2022 by messaging him on Snapchat.

“He said the messages became sexual and invited both boys to go to her house,” said prosecutor Matthew Lawson.

“It was clear to both boys they were going there for sex.”

As well as a jail sentence, Harris was made the subject of a 10-year restraining order and a Sexual Harm Prevention Order.

Judge Sarah Munro KC slammed the mum for her “total disregard of any moral compass”.

“You felt unloved and you began to act in a way to get attention,” she added.

“In your desire for attention you gave no consideration on the long term detrimental impact on these young boys.

“There was significant planning and grooming behaviour used by you, a serious abuse of trust and a very significant disparity in age.”
