A wealthy British advertising executive and publisher, husband and father, divorced his wife.
And, according to him, the rumors started. He abandoned them, leaving them with nothing, and so on.
Rightly or wrongly, he believes he has been maligned, criticized, scorned … speculated about.
Yet he believes the settlement was generous, and resents the whispers behind his back.
So, while most wealthy folks going through divorces are more likely to be looking to seal their court files from public scrutiny, this man decided to strike back in a very public way.
He launched a website intended to set the record straight about his divorce.
On the site, he purports to disclose the terms of his divorce settlement.
He hopes it will quell the wild rumors.
Time will tell.
