No doubt she was using him, but my point being that would they have got married if she came here on a fiancee visa?
i was agreeing with you , but sure months living here or in the phils together would be better than a couple of 2wks visits to the phils


only problem with the fiancée visa is that your intending to get married, for a scammer its a 6 months visit to the UK and milking the guy out of as much as you can get, then either vanish like those on a VV or student visa or go back to the phils.

i doubt it most would wed, but she may well have married him in the uk still, because your under pressure to get married within 6 months, when i got married in the phils it was more than a year after we got engaged.
