The British woman married Priyanjana De Zoysa, 26, and moved to the country
But she had been stuck in Sri Lanka after her husband was murdered there
She admits that she doubts whether he loved her and says that she is now broke
A British woman who was left stranded in Sri Lanka after her toy boy husband was murdered has finally returned home - without a penny to her name.
Diane De Zoysa, 60, spent her entire £90,000 life savings on her husband Priyanjana De Zoysa, 26, but now admits that he 'obviously didn't love her'.
She sold her home in Musselburgh, East Lothian, two years ago, using the cash to build a house in Sri Lanka and buy her husband a minibus in Ahungalla, south of the capital Colombo.
Priyanjana was killed by gangsters last year, leaving Diane stranded in the country and she finally landed at Edinburgh Airport on Tuesday night after a 20-hour journey.

Speaking about her husband's death, Diane said that she was left stranded, with Priyanjana's family keeping her 'under house arrest', refusing to let her sell her house and demanding cash from her pension.
She told the Daily Record: 'I just couldn't stay there any longer. I kind of feel stupid now that I didn't listen to my family and my friends because they said it was just about the money.
