Parky Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2007/03/07/ndivorce07.xml "An ex-wife who is defending a record £48 million divorce award against a challenge by her former husband will tell the Court of Appeal today that family assets should generally be divided equally between the breadwinner and the homemaker when a marriage breaks down. Lawyers for Beverley Charman, 53, will argue that fairness demands an equal division of assets built up by the parties to a marriage. Beverly and John Charman outside the High Court yesterday Martin Pointer, QC, who will also represent Heather Mills McCartney in her forthcoming divorce, accepts that courts should still have some discretion in dividing a couple's assets." Ridiculous imo. I see Macca is up next....His assets are close to One bilion....!! Homemaker what is that about? Sit around drinking Gin and watching neighbours and maxing gold cards these witches.

Dave Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 On the radio the other day the lawyer for the husband was saying that £20m should have been enough for 'living expenses'. What planet do these people live on where £20m isn't enough to live with? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 So he's offered her £20m but she's holding out for £48m? Greedy fucking bitch. I think she got £48m and he thinks it should be 'just' £20m. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 Correct me if I'm wrong, but the couple were married a long time before the fortune was accumulated and she was awarded a lot less than 50% of the total value. Heather Mills is a money grabbing bitch, but this lass brought up a family for 27 years and I think she's well entitled to what she was awarded. It's always put on the wife..."well it's not like she'll go hungry", but then it's not like he will either is it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I'm missing some delicate irony but.....the Wildenstein wealth was all inherited and I doubt she has ever lifted a finger to do anything beyond directing her servants and planning her next excellent surgical procedure. She claimed at the original trial that it would be impossible to survive without a phalanx of servants (presumably to run through the house hiding the mirrors as she moves from room to room), thus needing a huge amount of money to keep the whole damn party going :tongue2: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially in the cases where the marriage has only lasted a few years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
