could not care less.

elevenclips · 04/09/2017 07:46

She can do whatever she chooses. It's her choice.

KC225 · 04/09/2017 07:47

He is an arse. She deserves better.

cushioncovers · 04/09/2017 07:47

Up to her. She will get fed up of it eventually. Maybe they have more of a business/raising the kids sort of arrangement these days.

LucyLocketLostIt · 04/09/2017 07:48

YANBU I hope she does for her sake.

hidinginthenightgarden · 04/09/2017 07:48

I agree. He has publically humiliated her on a number of occasions and she keeps taking him back. It sets a terrible example for their kids.
He is an idiot. She is the only person that he could ever trust to love him for who he is (more fool her) and not his money. He is treating her so badly.
How he ends up is not her concern. He made his bed.

Ankleswingers · 04/09/2017 07:49

I would if I was in her shoes.

Once a cheater, always a cheater.

She seems savvy enough not to put up with that kind of crap.

Skittlesss · 04/09/2017 07:51

She's put up with worse. I think she will just let him get away with it again.

PlasticPatty · 04/09/2017 07:52

They're a business, like the Beckhams. They won't divorce unless the stories would earn them a fortune, even more than that generated by an ongoing relationship.

Gorgosparta · 04/09/2017 07:53

No one knows whats going on in their marriage.

Maybe their marriage is just a business arrangment and she is happy for him to do what he wants. As long as he is discreet. He obviously wasnt this time.

Maybe she has some fellas on the side.

Maybe she is happy for him to do this as long as they remain married, she gets to have as many kids as she wants and maintain her lifestyle.

Maybe she is devestated and ger world is falling apart and she doesnt knoe what she wants to do.

Fact is, if she wants to leave she can. She isnt trapped if she decides to stay thats her choice. What we think she should do is irrelevant.

SpottedGingham · 04/09/2017 07:53

He's rich. She has a nice big house/s, car/s and a huge bank balance. Hmm

BlueSuffragette · 04/09/2017 07:59

He obviously doesn't respect her as he has humiliated her on numerous occasions with his womanising. Her children will become aware of his actions (gossip at school) and she needs to be a really strong role model for them. Shame he is such a poor role model for his sons. She should have walked before, but this time needs to show she has self-respect and tell him it's over. If he self destructs then that's his problem and he should have thought about what the cost to his family was when he was paying prostitutes. Cheating on you wife when pregnant is low life, to do it twice shows his true colours and complete lack of respect for her. Walk away and never go back.

IfYouGoDownToTheWoodsToday · 04/09/2017 08:06

I can understand why she didn't walk before, they were much younger and I expect she believed all the "I promise I won't do it again. I really love you" shite.
She's older now and knows exactly what her future will be if she got gives him this time.

She's an idiot if she forgives him, in most peoples' opinions, including mine.

Ifonlylifewasimple · 04/09/2017 08:12

I honestly couldn't care less. She would receive a VERY substantial divorce settlement and monthly maintenance payments so unlike many women she hasn't got to worry about whether she can afford to leave.

Slartybartfast · 04/09/2017 08:13

It is totally up to her, I saw the headlines on some of the tabloids, leave her alone. Wish they wouldn't hound her, and others.

Slartybartfast · 04/09/2017 08:16

apparently she should save him Hmm

SilentlyScreamingAgain · 04/09/2017 08:18

She is in no way humiliated by his behaviour, he seems a bit of an arsehole but her dignity is intact.

MorrisZapp · 04/09/2017 08:18

They're worth much more together than apart, much like another high profile sportsman and his wife who dominate the gossip rags.

He has shown her who he is, she can do with that what she likes.

Liiinoo · 04/09/2017 08:19

I understand she is a practicing Catholic. If she follows the rules of her church she can't divorce him. And for the people saying she has a cushy life and won't leave him for financial reasons, they've been together long enough that I think she'd do ok out of a settlement. She wouldn't be shopping at Asda or living in a tower block.

FWIW I am also a practicing Catholic and follow the tenets of the church that suit me gel with my common sense and conscience and I think if my husband acted like WR I might be thinking 'enough is enough'. But CR might be more sincere in her belief/devout/committed than me .

twattymctwatterson · 04/09/2017 08:19

This is the third thread about this. Always focused on the wife rather than his scummy behaviour

Neutrogena · 04/09/2017 08:20

If he was caught getting a BJ off the other woman, I think she should consider counselling. Divorce? Nope, they have 3 kids.
Typical MN to scream 'divorce' when a man has not even cheated, but did something rather stupid like drink drive.

what2dooo · 04/09/2017 08:21

Yanbu - i feel sorry for her

MorrisZapp · 04/09/2017 08:22

Omg that column. No words. Hateful, misogynist shit.

Brittbugs80 · 04/09/2017 08:22

He's an absolute disgrace. I honestly don't know how she can have children with him the way he is. And she's now pregnant with their 4th.

She's supported him from the beginning, he's done nothing but shit all over her.

SemiNormal · 04/09/2017 08:26

It's the kid I feel sorry for, they're the ones who have to go to school with a load of kids who will be privy to information that should have been kept private. They're the ones who will be dealing with an atmosphere at home and tears/frayed tempers (or god knows what else). I imagine that someone will have to tell them something just in case kids bring it up in school.
