A couple spared jail when their three-month-old baby daughter was mauled to death by their dog have separated over the trauma of the case, we have learned.

Kyra Leanne King suffered fatal injuries to her neck and head when she was savaged by a Siberian husky sled dog called Blizzard on March 6 last year.

Her parents Vince King, 55, and Karen Alcock, 41, had been exercising 19 dogs on a field when the horror unfolded in Woodhall Spa, Lincolnshire.

Now Kyra's parents have split and Karen has moved out of their three bedroom country cottage with a paddock and land for their animals in the village of New York, near Coningsby, Lincolnshire.

The couple were spared being sent to prison on Monday after pleading guilty to being in charge of a dog dangerously out of control, causing injury resulting in death.

One local told MailOnline: 'The tragedy of losing her daughter in the most horrific circumstances and the stress of the court case hanging over her became too much for Karen and she left.

By all accounts their relationship ended acrimoniously.

'It was a freak accident and they have both been through hell. As well as losing their tiny new baby, who would have turned two this December, the strain of being arrested and charged has wrecked their relationship.

'There were problems from the moment of the attack, and each tried to blame one another.

'Then Karen admitted the offence but Vince denied it, then later changed his plea on the first day of his trial.

'She walked out on him and we haven't seen her around here since this time last year.

No one knows where she's moved to.'
