A MARRIED mum of three fell pregnant after having a sordid affair with a schoolboy and his teenage brother at the same time — then did not know which one was the father.

Claire Louise Roundill, 32, plied the 15-year-old boy with cannabis and bombarded him with hundreds of texts and naked pictures of
herself before driving him to a secluded location to have sex.

Roundill, from Hull, claimed she was initially unaware of his age but had sex with him again when she knew he was under the age of consent.

Hull Crown Court heard she was also having a relationship with his 17-year-old brother.

Then she became pregnant and did not know which boy was the father.

Today she was given a nine-month suspended sentence after admitting sexual activity with a child, possessing and supplying cannabis.

She must also sign the Sex Offenders’ Register for ten years.

Jharna Jobes, prosecuting, told the court: “On the first occasion they had sexual intercourse, she did not know he was 15 but she accepts she discovered he was 15 and went on to have sex with him again.

“During this time, the defendant was also in a relationship with his brother. She became pregnant.”

The court heard Roundill sent the younger brother text messages, asking to meet up, and pictures of her naked breasts.

Ms Jobes added: “They met up and drove to Hessle Foreshore and had sex in her car. The relationship carried on after he turned 16.

“He said she told him she was pregnant and was not sure which brother was the father.”

The court also heard that Roundill had an abortion after discovering she was pregnant.

Roundill’s barrister Charlotte Baines said the married mum was having “a difficult time” in her life when she embarked on the relationships.

She said: “She was suffering financially and her marriage was in real trouble.

“She is not the type of defendant the court needs to send to prison immediately.”

Passing sentence, Judge John Dowse told her: “The court must mark its displeasure at this offence. You now have a criminal record for the rest of your life."

However, the father of the two teenage boys, who cannot be named for legal reasons, slammed the sentence as a "slap on the wrist".

He said: “If it had been the other way around and this was a man having sex with a 15-year-old girl, he would have been locked up, without a shadow of a doubt.

"But, because she is a woman, she has walked free.

“She took advantage of both my sons. When my elder son dumped her, she targeted the younger. She planned it.

“It was disgusting what she did."
