A Lamborghini story
An entrepreneur who moved a Playboy model into his luxury flat is fighting his ex-wife in court, complaining that a divorce judge handed her millions, left him nothing at all, then told him he had "brought it on himself".
Richard Rothschild and Charmaine de Souza had a 21-year relationship after meeting as students, marrying in 2005, having two children and running a thriving west London telecomms business.
The pair led a lavish lifestyle, with Mr Rothschild driving a Lamborghini, while the couple also enjoyed a multi-million dollar condo in an exclusive Miami Beach apartment block.
The pair split in 2016 and first clashed in court in 2018 after Mr Rothschild moved his then girlfriend, Playboy model Sherra Michelle, into the couple's former apartment.
In December last year, divorce judge Mr Justice Cohen divided their wealth, awarding Ms de Souza, 46, the £1.85m Park Royal, west London-based mobile phone business they had run together, plus cash and properties worth almost another £1m.
Mr Rothschild, 45, was given the Miami apartment, which the judge valued at US$3 million (£2.38m), but which the husband says is worth far less, leaving him effectively with nothing after paying off family debts.
He is now challenging the "unfair" divorce ruling at the Court of Appeal, where his lawyers this week said he had been left "with in effect no capital at all, and no income."
