A mum-of-four who married a white supremacist in prison on only her eighth visit to see him said she is excited about their first conjugal visit.
It will be the first time Becci Thompson gets intimate with American convict Travis Thompson – a former white supremacist with Hatred tattooed on his forehead.
Becci, 31, flew out to San Diego to marry Thompson less than two weeks ago and told Good Morning Britain: You cant help who you fall in love with.
Now that they are married, the couple are allowed a family visit which means they are allowed to spend 48-hours together in an apartment on the prison grounds.
Susannah Reid asked her about the conjugal visit and said: That will be the first time in your relationship that youve been intimate with your husband.

Carer Becci said: Im excited about it but I think were more excited to just chill out and watch TV and relax without being watched by guards all the time.
Host Susannah joked: You just got married and you cant wait to watch TV.
Thompson, 33, is serving eight years and seven months in jail for burglary and gun offences and he is due to be released in 2023.
While in prison, he joined a racist gang, but Becci claims it was a protection thing.
Its the battle for whos the toughest. He doesnt believe in what they believe, she told The Sun.

When he realised it was about power, money and control he decided it wasnt for him. Thats when he decided to be an inactive member.
Becci, who lives in Surrey, said she can look past the white supremacist links and hopes he will be a great father to her children, aged nine, seven, six, and five.
Becci told GMB she wasnt too concerned about his criminal past, adding: Yes, he did something wrong, but also, hes done his time.
