BMW driver admits causing death of pregnant mum who died in horror crash that also left sons, 2 and 9, and nephew hurt
A DRIVER has admitted causing the death of a pregnant mum in a horror crash that also injured her two sons and nephew.
Frankie Jules-Hough, 38, was travelling with her two kids, aged nine and two, as well as her nephew on the M66 when the horror unfolded.
The mum had pulled over on the hard shoulder to answer a call when she was struck by Adil Iqbal, 22, in a BMW.
Iqbal today pleaded guilty to causing Frankie’s death in the May 13 crash.
He also admitted causing serious injuries to Frankie’s son eldest son but did not enter a plea to the same charge relating to her nephew.
Iqbal, who works in a boxing gym, was remanded into custody ahead of sentencing on July 19.
Frankie had discovered that she was pregnant with a baby girl the week before her tragic death.
She was rushed to hospital following the horror but sadly died two days later.
Her eldest son and nephew were left in induced comas in intensive care.
Paying tribute, Frankie’s brother-in-law Arron Welby said: “She was the most amazing person, she had a heart of gold.
“She was a dedicated, fierce mother and she was a fighter for her kids.
“She was the best auntie. She was a shining light, she would protect her kids with everything she had.”
