‘Love and affection’ pre-nup deal cost Dunne fifth of wealth

A prenuptial

Mr Dunne dismissed doubts about his motivation for pledging a substantial portion of his fortune to his wife as “pure bunkum” but also admitted for the first time that so-called Creditor A, who is listed as being owed €33m, was in fact his current wife, Ms Killilea.

“I’m not going to get into what my wife gives me matrimonially,” Mr Dunne replied when asked what considerations she offered in return during one of many tense exchanges.
