My husband has been paying for lap dancing and escorts through his company. He said he would take legal action against me if I told anyone.

[watchout]

Sorry, shaking at the thought of this. I'm at my dads. I've left him.
But if he, through expenses, in a limited company has paid for lap dancing clubs - can I share this? Would it be subject to a freedom of information request?
He said if I told anyone he would take legal action.

FOI only related to public bodies, so no.

What legal action does he imagine he can take against you, for telling the truth?

I mean I would just leave him and cut ties- why do you want to tell ? Do you have children/ need a settlement?

What a dickhead for even threatening you. If you weren’t thinking of fucking things up for him now this should it. What a prick!!

He said if I told my friends/ his family he would take legal action. But it's all true.

He has commited fraud, so how can you get into trouble? He will lose his job if it comes out.

What sort of legal action? He’s talking bollocks.

Aw, tell him to go fuck himself. Legal action for what?

What legal action? There is no possible legal action.

He's making shit up to frighten you.

Take out an advert in the local press and tell all!

^^ yy to what OnlyFools said.

Nothign good will come out of telling anyone (unless it is a material fact in confirming settlements, as said). You just need to walk away from someone who sounds like a nasty, grubby, misogynistic bully.

Lol. He’s threatening that his company sue his wife (and thereby half his marital assets) for what...

I’d tell him you’ll countersue his company for harassment. I mean if he’s going to throw out stupid threats, why not.

How did you find out? Did you see bank statements/credit card statements?

He can't take legal action if it's true and proveable

Is it his own company or has he been defrauding someone he works for? As a minimum it is probably tax evasion as that is not a legitimate company expense. Tell whoever you want, the truth is an absolute defence.

Anyway, you need to play smart now OP. He’s telling you that money is his motivator, so he’s going to do all he can to prevent you getting any money in divorce. Don’t give him anything he can use to do that. You’d be playing right into his hands. Tell who you need to tell for support but swear them to secrecy and don’t tell anyone else.

He owns the company. A limited company. The receipts look like 'dinner' but it's naked table dancing.

Do you do his accounts? I’m guessing you have no access to them now? And didn’t think to make copies or take photos?

What a prick 🙄

I have the texts from the escort plus I called her and recorded it. She talked about the people he went to the club with by name (regional and identifiable names) his name is generic

Is it fraud if he is on company expenses?

Of course!

Go you!! Smart thinking.

Tell him that you want a nice clean divorce, or he can explain to the tax man about his little dinners.

OH I’ve seen your other threads you want to tell the wives of his business’ clients that their husbands went to lap dance clubs and escorts- that’s why he plans to sue you- it will massively damage his business. You also wanted to publish his company name on here not cool. I know you’re angry but don’t do this.

You can easily let someone know not in writing and you can't be sued if it isnt true.
