THE mum of N-Dubz rapper Dappy’s two children is engaged to an American triple murderer she has never met.
Kaye Vassell contacted jailed Deandra Buchanan two months ago.
The 29-year-old has now moved to Missouri to be near him and is campaigning for his release.
Buchanan, who featured in Netflix docuseries I Am A Killer, is serving life for shooting dead his stepdad, aunt and girlfriend at a party in November 2000.
He claims he suffered a psychotic episode after smoking a “spiked” joint.
Kaye, from Hammersmith, West London, said she wrote to Buchanan, 45, in February while living in Los Angeles.
The media marketer, whose kids aged nine and ten are still in Britain, said: “I was just intrigued by the story.
“I didn’t expect it, but he got back straight away.

“It was five or six letters before I gave him my number. We speak on the phone up to three times a day.
“I get how people might think, ‘She’s crazy, what is she doing?’ But once you talk to him and know his heart, you understand that he is not a bad person.”
Kaye has not been able to visit him at Jefferson City Correctional Centre because of coronavirus rules.
