“This (name change) has been done for my safety and to allow some level of anonymity on a daily basis,” Toni McHugh, 48, told the publication after it tracked her down.

A married Toni began an affair with Allison Baden-Clay’s husband Gerard in 2008, while working for him at his Brisbane real estate office.

They ended their romance after Allison found out about the affair in 2011, but began seeing each other again after his wife disappeared the following year.

Gerard was found guilty of Allison’s murder in 2014 and jailed for 15 years, while an innocent Toni fled Australia.

She’s now working as a teacher at a school in the UAE.

“I wouldn’t look twice at her if I didn’t know anything about her, she just looks like an ordinary expat teacher,” a source told The Sunday Mail of Toni.

“A little reason of why she ended up here is probably because she faded into the general background of expat teachers.”
