Jules Thomas, the ex-partner of Ian Bailey, recently disclosed that she is facing an 'incurable illness' and expressed her desire to scatter his ashes with his sisters as a way to bid farewell. The couple was together for over 30 years before parting ways in 2021. Thomas shared that she was diagnosed with the illness shortly after the release of Netflix's documentary 'Sophie: A Murder in West Cork,' which she criticized as biased and disgusting.

Thomas attributed the decline in her health to the immense stress she experienced due to the unsolved murder case surrounding the death of French filmmaker Sophie Toscan du Plantier in 1996. She emphasized that the strain took a significant toll on her well-being, leading to a weakened immune system and frequent illnesses.

Despite her health challenges, Thomas remains active by engaging in daily floor exercises and tending to her extensive garden. She highlighted the therapeutic benefits of these activities in maintaining her physical and mental well-being.

Thomas vehemently denied any involvement in or knowledge of the murder of Ms. Toscan du Plantier, for which Bailey was accused but never charged. She supported filmmaker Jim Sheridan's assertion that there was no concrete evidence against Bailey, who faced wrongful arrests in connection with the case.

She expressed her frustration with the negative portrayal of Bailey in various documentaries, including the Netflix production, and revealed her plans to take legal action against the streaming platform and its production company. Thomas criticized the documentary for its biased narrative and its impact on her reputation in the local community.

Reflecting on her tumultuous relationship with Bailey, Thomas recounted his struggles with substance abuse as a coping mechanism for the challenges he faced. She recalled his fixation on the murder case, which consumed his thoughts and conversations, ultimately straining their relationship.

Thomas also addressed the incidents of violence she experienced at the hands of Bailey, leading her to seek a protection order against him. Despite the hardships she endured, Thomas expressed gratitude for the support of the local community amidst the scrutiny and judgment she faced.

As she navigates her health issues and the aftermath of the unresolved murder case, Thomas remains resilient and determined to seek closure and healing. Her candid revelations shed light on the complexities of her past relationship with Bailey and the enduring impact of the tragic events surrounding the murder investigation.
