Christian B is now the prime suspect in the infamous disappearance of Madeleine McCann, with prosecutors in Germany investigating him “on suspicion of murder”.
His ex, from Berkshire, moved to the Algarve town of Lagos in late 2003 and worked at the Taberna de Lagos restaurant alongside waiter Christian B, who was two years younger.
The 45-year-old barmaid – who has asked not to be identified – came home alone and was horrified when he appeared under her bed before coolly walking away.
She was left traumatised by the incident, three years before three-year-old Maddie was snatched from her holiday home in Praia da Luz on Portugal’s Algarve.
Recalling the incident, she told the Daily Mirror: “I peeked under and got the shock of my life. He was hiding under there, lying on his back, staring at me.
“He got out from under the bed, acted like everything was normal, said goodbye to me, walked out and closed the door behind him.
I peeked under and got the shock of my life. He was hiding under there, lying on his back, staring at me.
Christian B's ex, who found him lying under her bed
“I was there all alone, just shaking and shaking.”
Christian B also brutally beat her during their fling – which lasted less than a year – slamming her head against a wall in the ladies toilets of bar where she worked.
They had become friends in the Spring of 2004, with the woman describing him as “very charming” and the relationship as “very nice”.
The petite barmaid incredibly forgave Christian B after her New Year’s Day beating – but dumped him in mid-2005 when she found women’s underwear in his bag.
The suspect – who is 43 now – is believed to have been leading a “transient lifestyle” at the time of Madeleine’s disappearance, as he travelled between Portugal and Germany.
It is believed he was living in the Iberian nation between 1995 and 2007 working in the food industry.
The man is known to have been in the area at the time of Madeleine’s disappearance, having taken a 30-minute phone call an hour before she went missing.
He has also been linked with the disappearances of several children over the past 25 years, including Inga Gehricke – who was just five when she disappeared during a family outing in Saxony-Anhalt on May 2, 2015.
‘NO STATEMENT’
Christian B. is serving a 21-month prison sentence for a drug offence in high security prison Kiel.
He has served two thirds of the time and had applied for early release from his drugs sentence.
And the lawyer for Christian B said today that he will not give any information about the case.
Attorney Friedrich Fülscher, who represents the suspect together with the Hamburg lawyer Johann Schwenn, told RTL today: “Christian B is not making any statements on the case at the moment and we ask for your understanding that we as defense attorneys are not making any statements either.”
It comes as a documentary aired in Germany this evening revealed new information about the suspect.
Former pal Norbert M spoke of the 43-year-old’s “hair-trigger temper” on the RTL two-hour special.

German prosecutors investigating the prime suspect in the Madeleine McCann case also called on Sun readers to turn detective and solve the mystery.
Hans Wolters is convinced rapist Christian B, 43, is responsible for her murder but is desperate for help from Brits who may hold the key to cracking the crime.
Mr Wolters said they had “strong evidence” and added they were sure Madeleine “has been murdered” but still needed more information to make the case against him stick.
He said: “We need the help of the readers of The Sun. Maybe there are some British tourists who spent their time between 1995 and 2007 in Portugal, in Praia da Luz, and took some video or pictures.”
