Susan Sangster has amassed 18 million through three divorces and is now after another huge fortune from her fourth.

Why is it that as a result of marriage somebody can take a slice of a fortune that was built for many years before the relationship? Why do people risk marriage when on the strength of a short relationship they can lose half of everything they have worked their lives to accumulate?

Where is the pride of women or men who would rather walk away with money than dignity?

Surely it is fair, only to make a claim on what has been accumulated together during the life of the relationship and then to (both) provide for the children.

Unfortunately seems to be far more common for women to get a huge payout from their ex- husbands which means that men still feel that women are dependant on them. It is humiliating for those of us that don’t expect men to provide for us in or out of a relationship.

So Susan, Heather Mills and all you other parasites, PLEASE STOP MAKING WOMANKIND LOOK FEEBLE AND MAKE DO WITH YOUR OWN MONEY!

I would say sod his money and walk away with dignity knowing that I do not need to depend on an ex for any part of my future and in fact I would rather sleep in a box than do so.

What price love when pride goes out the window at the last.
