A woman has secured an order from the Gauteng High Court in Johannesburg that allows her to take her two minor children - a 7-year-old daughter and 9-year-old son - with her to the UK when she relocates along with her new husband. | ntwaagae
The woman, a senior accountant, and the children's father divorced on 28 February 2020.
"The applicant appears to be better able to contain his anxiety for when he is with her," said Bezuidenhout. "Although she considers both parents equally important, she may be marginally more attached to her mother. The minor girl's narrative about not wanting to relocate with her mother to London mirrors her brother's response.
The woman's employer secured immediate temporary accommodation for her and the children in Wandsworth. "The respondent shall sign all documents and do all things necessary to assist the applicant in obtaining their children's passports, required permits and visas for their departure from South Africa and her entry into the United Kingdom within three days of being requested to do so.
"The [mother] shall keep the [father] advised of the minor children's physical and emotional wellbeing, academic progress, their involvement in sporting, cultural or other extramural activities and shall furnish the respondent with copies of the reports regarding their academic, cultural and sporting progress.
