A devastated student flew 400 miles to meet her lover in Amsterdam only to be told she was the victim of a cruel "pull a pig" prank.

Sophie Stevenson, 24, from Stoke, forked out £350 on a flight to see holiday romance Jesse Mateman, 21, after the couple met in Barcelona, during August.

But when Miss Stevenson arrived at her hotel, in the Dutch capital, she received a heartless text message, the MailOnline reported.

Mr Mateman wrote: "'You were pigged' and added two pigs and a laughing face emojis before adding, 'It was all a joke.'"

Heratbroken Miss Stevenson replied: "How could you be so cruel though!"

She told the Sun: "Pulling a pig is where a guy tries to pull the fat, ugly girl. I felt sick."

The bar supervisor said, after the couple slept together during their Catalan break, she thought they had a 'proper romance' and was gutted it was all an abusive prank.

Mr Mateman swiftly blocked Miss Stevenson after his messages.

She said: "I was so upset I changed my flights and headed home the next morning."
