Man narrates how he nearly lost his life after his partner subjected him to horrendous abuse, including pouring boiling water on him

A man is lucky to be alive after being physically abused by his girlfriend and he's now sharing his story with the world.

Alex Skeel, 22, was physically attacked and had boiling water poured over him by his former partner Jordan Worth, 22. He was also denied food, kept isolated from friends and family and even told what to wear by his ex, the Daily Record reports.

Alex says he was just 10 days away from death following one particular attack from his girlfriend.

Worth admitted grievous bodily harm and coercive controlling behaviour and was jailed for seven-and-a-half years at Luton Crown Court earlier this year.

Now Alex has bravely spoken out about his ordeal, claiming medics told him he was days away from death when help reached him.
