The son of Osama Bin Laden and his British wife have split up after he began to hear his father's voice in his head, it has emerged.
The fourth eldest child of the Al Qaeda mastermind was admitted to a psychiatric hospital last week with drug-induced schizophrenia.
Omar Bin Laden and his wife Zaina, from Cheshire, revealed last month that they'd been hoping to have a baby with surrogate mother Louise Pollard from Bristol.
Mrs Pollard was had fertility treatment in an attempt to conceive using the sperm of 29-year-old Omar and the eggs of his 54-year-old wife Jane Felix Browne - who changed her name to Zaina when they married.
After the third attempt, Mrs Pollard, 29, vowed to try again. It was unclear last night whether or not the fourth round of IVF treatment had been a success.
Bin Laden has had several visa applications to live in Britain rejected. A British son may help his case, although Home Office officials said he would not automatically be granted a visa.
The couple split after weeks of erratic behaviour which saw Bin Laden racking up £3,000 of motoring fines and going on wild shopping sprees.
His wife told the Sun she was heartbroken but couldn't cope anymore.
She said: 'Our wedding vows said "in sickness and in health" but if this goes on any longer I could end up dead.' The couple met in Egypt in 2006 and enjoyed a whirlwind romance before getting married.
Zaina, who had been married six times before, revealed she knew Bin Laden had bipolar disorder when she met him. She said: 'He'd have manic periods when he was very enthusiastic about everything.
Then crashing lows when he would be quiet and subdued, staying in bed all day and not going to sleep until late at night.'
The grandmother of five blames her husband's troubles solely on his father and the terrorist atrocities he inspired.
She said: 'There's no one else responsible for this. Omar loves and hates Osama at the same time.
'He loves him because he is his father but hates what he has done. I think he suffered post-traumatic stress disorder after 9/11. Seeing what his dad done ruined Omar's life.'
She also claimed that the row over his visa combined with Bin Laden family pressures led to her husband's mental state worsening.
He had been living in Qatar and keeping in touch with his wife by phoning and emailing her daily at her home in Moulton, Cheshire.
Ten days ago, concerned at the condition he was in, Zaina flew to Qatar where she took her husband to a doctor. He was immediately referred to a psychiatric unit. But after three days he checked himself out and his bizarre behaviour continued.
The final straw came when he took the car out and was driving erratically when Zaina was with him. She said: 'It was as if he had drunk ten pints. I was trying to lean over and grab the wheel, I didn't want to die in a crash.
'When we got back I told him I wanted a divorce and returned to England on Monday.
'I still love him with all my heart but I just can't be with him until he is better.'
