A PREGNANT porn star raided supermarket aisles using an empty pram in a five-week shoplifting spree.

Roma Lawson, 34, also swiped a £2,500 diamond ring from a jewellery store after switching it with a £30 fake to fuel her cocaine habit.

She would stash bottles of gin and whiskey in her handbag and used an empty pram to swipe six bottles of vodka from a Sainsbury's.

Lawson carried out the shoplifting rampage while while subject to an eight-month suspended prison sentence for biting a cop.

Despite this, the porn star, who works under the name Romana Ryder, was handed a further four months on her suspended sentence at Canterbury Crown Court.

The recorder, Edmund Fowler, decided to give Lawson a second chance to clean up her act.

She raided a Sainsbury’s for booze and swiped a dozen bottles of vodka in total from the store and a Tesco.

Lawson also stole pet food from a Tesco Express and facial cleansers and a candle from Aldi.

As her spree continued, she swapped the £2,500 ring from a pawnbrokers in Herne Bay.

While the shopkeeper was busying themselves looking for a diamond-encrusted band she claimed she had pawned months beforehand, Lawson switched the 14-carat ring.

In mitigation, her lawyer Ian Bond said: "The spate of shoplifting is over a five-week period.

"She had been living with her partner, she fell pregnant and shortly thereafter her partner was remanded in custody and then her mother’s health took a turn for the worse."

Lawson, who admitted six counts of shoplifting, was previously convicted of biting a police officer while high on cocaine in Margate.

The adult entertainer attempted to flee that crime by running away half-naked.

Sentencing, recorder Mr Fowler said: "You have now got a 12-month sentence hanging over you for the next two years.
