So are we now, like everything else it seems, copying the Americans in thinking that wives are entitled to half their husband's estate in the event of divorce. I have to say, if that's the case, I'm not surprised the husband tried to conceal his true worth, although of course there's never any excuse for trying to deceive the court. This is of course all very sad, and only serves to reinforce Lady Hale's (I think it was her) comment that many young women's only career aspiration is to marry a footballer.
