		</div><p>A woman told police of her disbelief when she discovered that her boyfriend of two years was a female friend, a jury in England has heard.</p>
<p>The complainant says she thought she was having sex with a man called Kye Fortune, who was recovering from a brain tumour and did not want her to see his scars.</p>
<p>But she claims she eventually discovered it was in fact her friend, Gayle Newland, 25, who had persuaded her to wear a blindfold throughout their sexual encounters in which a prosthetic was used.</p>
<p>Newland, of Hooton Road, Willaston, is on trial at Chester Crown Court where she denies five counts of sexual assault between February and June 2013.</p>
<p>The court heard that the alleged victim received a Facebook friend request in 2011 from a Kye Fortune who purported to be a half-Filipino, half-Latino young male.</p>
<p>They communicated online and “Kye” later told her he had been involved in a car accident and medics had found he had a brain tumour.</p>
<p>He was having treatment in hospital and was not well enough to see her, the complainant told police in a video interview.</p>
<p>But the pair spoke frequently on the phone where the complainant described Kye’s voice as “high-pitched”.</p>
<p>The complainant told the interviewing officer: “He was saying how much I had helped him get through his illness.</p>
<p>“(He said) it was a sign, we should get married, we should have kids, we were going to do all sorts of things.”</p>
<p>During this time, the complainant said she met Newland – who became a “really good friend” and said she knew Kye.</p>
<p>Eventually the complainant and Kye decided to finally meet in person at a Chester hotel, the jury heard.</p>
<p>She told police that the only stipulation that Kye made was that she wear a blindfold because he was “anxious about the way he looked” and “could not walk properly” due to nerve and muscle damage.</p>
<p>She said Kye was in the bathroom when she entered the hotel room and the bed was covered with rose petals and Hello Kitty bears.</p>
<p>The complainant said she put on the blindfold of a sleeping mask and scarf and that a “shaking” Kye came in and said he had signed himself out of a private hospital in Manchester.</p>
<p>The pair then had sex, she alleges, before Kye said he had to return to hospital.</p>
<p>Further hotel visits followed where she said sex took place again before Kye visited her flat and finally uncovered the truth, the court heard.</p>
<p>Describing what she said was their last sexual encounter before she went to the police, she said: “When I was having sex I grabbed for the back of his head and my hand got caught on something. It did not feel right.</p>
<p>“I was sat on the bed, he was standing up. Something in my mind said ’pull it (the blindfold) off, pull it off’.</p>
<p>“I just pulled it off. Gayle was just standing there &#8230; I just couldn’t believe it, I couldn’t believe it.</p>
<p>“Straight away she held her hand down over her face and said ’it’s not what you think’.”</p>
<p>The complainant said Newland then referred to a previous conversation they had had about a movie called 17 Again in which a character is transported into a younger body and has to convince people it is actually him.</p>
<p>She told the interviewing officer: “I couldn’t believe that person would want to do something like this to me &#8230; these last two years had fabricated this world around me.</p>
<p>“He &#8230; Gayle &#8230; pulled the wool over my eyes.”</p>
<p>She went on: “I don’t go for women, that is not my thing.</p>
<p>“I know you can’t compare rape case to rape case, I know I shouldn’t be saying this &#8230; I think I would have preferred it, I know it sounds sick, the fact that it was a girl. I didn’t know what to do with myself.</p>
<p>“I did not want to go to a doctor and say I was raped by a girl.”</p>
<p>She told the officer that she believed the deception would still be continuing if she had not pulled off the blindfold.</p>
