Reading the whole article and trusting the c of a. I would agree she is entitled to something. She gave up work and a flat effectivly she was acting as a wife for 12 years which enabled him to prosper in his work as he would have done so with a wife.
Giving up work and letting him pay for everything including her child from a previous relationship. My heart bleeds for her.

So they got together and he put a gun to her head and made her a stepford wife? Doubt it, I'd imagine she thought, I've got myself a cushy number here...Tribal Chestnut said:

The decision is ridiculous, far too many people have a sense of entitlement, and bizarre events like this don't help.

Just a thought.

Nope. Quite ok. Rather than read the Wail, perhaps read the full judgement. Facts matter, not opinions. It took me 5 minutes to read it. Im quite good at reading he promised many things but ultimately wanted a squeeze without commitment.

That appears to be nothing more than a collection of "He said - She said" statements. No cash of hers (or risk) seems to have been put into the property.http://www.bailii.org/ew/cases/EWCA/Civ/2014/1347....

That would be the obvious conclusion in the case of any woman who puts a condition of material wealth on wether she's prepared to enter into a relationship.In which case anyone who gets bitten by that only really has themselves to blame by not making it clear that they've got no financial benefits to offer from day 1.Gassing Station | News, Politics & Economics | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
