A MUM-OF-FIVE whose ex beat her unconscious because she wouldn’t stay up partying with him has told how she feared for her life during the assault.

Daniel Prenderville, 34, was this week jailed for six more months for the savage attack on Hayley Flood in which he battered her with the metal tube from a vacuum cleaner.

Hayley, 31, was left for dead at her home in Walkinstown, Dublin following the beating on July 6, 2019.

She now needs regular Botox injections to help her smile straight as a result of the horrific injuries to her jaw and cheek bones.

Brute Prenderville, of Seagull House, Rutland Avenue, Dublin was on drugs on the night of the assault.

He knocked Hayley to the ground and kicked her repeatedly in the face.

He pleaded guilty at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court to assault causing harm and criminal damage of the front door of a flat at Dowland Road, Walkinstown.

Hayley told Irish Sunday Mirror: “I wanted to go to bed.

“We were after being having a drink when I said I was going to bed.

“He went into a frenzy, got my phone and smashed it.
