Divorcee gets half of £20m fortune
Mrs Lambert, 50, claimed at the Court of Appeal that she made an equal contribution to her former husband’s business and was therefore entitled to half its selling price.
The appeal court agreed with her claim. Lord Justice Thorpe, in his conclusions to his judgement, said: “There must be an end to the sterile assertion that the breadwinner’s contribution weighs heavier than the homemaker’s.”
