My fiancé took 3 bullets for me and said ‘tell our children daddy loves them’ (Photos)

A hero Brit was shot repeatedly as he shielded his fiancee from an evil IS gunman on a Tunisian beach.

Matthew James, 30, told Sarah Wilson, 26: “I love you babe. But just go.”

Survivor Sarah told how her brave fiancé saved her from the terror which killed 37.

As at least one gunman opened fire with a Kalashnikov, she and Matthew were lying on sunbeds like hundreds of others.

Seconds later, as up to 13 fellow Brits lay dying, she said he was hit by a bullet and blood started pouring out from him.

She said: “I was screaming and it was chaos as more shots were coming out.

“He just told me to run away. He said: ‘I love you babe. But just go – tell our children that their daddy loves them.’”

She managed to escape after Matthew shielded her, taking a bullet in the hip, one in the chest and one in the pelvis.

Sarah fled back to the hotel, hid from the full horror of the terrorist massacre, and later hunted for Matthew for two hours, even looking under sheets in makeshift hotel morgues.

As she feared for the worst, someone passed a phone to her and said: “I have a very grumpy man on the phone who won’t do anything until he has spoken to you.”

Sarah added: “It was Matthew and that was the first time I knew he was alive.”
