People, this is a real case of the unthinkable capital ‘P’ word happening in the United Kingdom. This is something that a lot of us always believe can only happen in those ‘uncivilized societies.’
This is a story of a 55-year-old British woman Yvonne Gibney, who found out that her 49-year-old husband, Maurice, of 17 years is secretly married to another woman.
She found out after seeing pictures of Maurice kissing his secret bride at the wedding on Facebook, Daily Mail reports. The couple have two children together.
Yvonne first started to hear about her husband’s secret wife via Facebook, however dismissing the rumours, refusing to believe that Maurice would betray her.
Her worst fear came true when she saw pictures of the £45,000 wedding ceremony which took place at an exotic beach in Oman.
According to Daily Mail report, Maurice, who is an oil contractor allegedly got married whilst been away on one of his work trips to the Arab State. The bride 46-year-old bride- Suzanne Prudhoe, is a teacher whom Maurice had been having an affair with for 18 months.
Yvonne found out that her husband had lied to his family, telling them that they had gotten a divorce, and that he was free to marry another woman.
Maurice’s mom reportedly walked him down the aisle , and the step daughter was a bridesmaid.
Yvonne stated that “I believed in our marriage and shared values, trust, love and respect for each other, a sense of morality.
I loved him unconditionally and believed that love was reciprocated. I simply don’t have the words to effectively convey the pain and hurt and sense of betrayal,”
Out of being hurt, she sued her husband to court for practicing bigamy. Maurice was given a 6-month sentence, which was suspended for two years. Our conclusion simply is “A man will always be a man”
Now ladies- what would you do if you found yourself in a similar circumstance?
