‘Lovesick’ husband, 75, told to stop constantly texting wife

A judge has told a “lovesick and brokenhearted” 75-year-old man that non-stop texting to his wife of nearly 50 years has to stop.

At the family law court, Judge Patrick Durcan made an order permitting the man to only send two texts a week to his wife.

The woman, who has moved out of the family home to stay with relatives, was seeking a safety order after already been granted an earlier protection order.
