Rich British woman shares half of her assets with unemployed South African husband in divorce settlement
Prior to their marriage, the woman was in the process of divorce from her previous marriage of 18 years. As part of a divorce settlement from that marriage, she received funds that were deposited into her new husband’s bank account. In her application, she said soon after they got married, the husband stopped showing love and care towards her. He was contemptuous towards her on a daily basis. She stated that the relationship slowly started to breakdown due to physical, verbal, and emotional abuse.
In his response, the husband admitted that they would have verbal altercations but he denied all the allegations of abuse levelled against him. He said he had a stand in Carletonville, a house in Roodepoort worth about R600,000, a Colt L 200 bakkie, a VW Golf and a Polo Cross. Acting Judge JL Bhengu said he was not convinced that the husband should forfeit the house and the Audi A3 because when the couple moved to South Africa, the husband provided them with accommodation until they sold the house as the wife had suggested.
