D.i.v.o.r.c.e.....

[Gypsy-Rhiannon]

Just thought I would let anyone who is interested know that I've started the ball rolling with my divorce from my dickwad of a husband. We seperated back in January but had to live in the same house until it was sold. The marriage had been having problems for a long time and him working abroad made me realise how much happier I was without him. Plus he was a complete asshole over Xmas, upsetting both me and the kids. So I told him we needed to split. I then found out in the February that he had been seeing someone abroad since at least the November (I think it was longer than that though). I moved into my little rented house in July (and I love it! Should have done it years ago!) with the kids and he rented a huge house... the reason for this becoming clear later on. He now has is 'other woman' living with him. She is from Venezuela and she's over here on a 3 month visa with her child. I didn't find out she was here until he had the kids for the first time ever (3 months after we moved into our rented houses). He took them to his, introduced them to her and then told them not to tell me. Bastard. My daughter, Rhiannon was very traumatised by the whole thing. I found out later that she had already been here since the middle of September.. playing happy families.. the child has a bedroom full of clothes and toys that he has brought and she is even in school. Anyway.. I had it out with him... told him I didn't care who he was with but that the way he had behaved had really upset the children. He tried to tell me his private life was none of my business... well I don't agree when it concerns our kids.
And then the money that he had agreed to pay each month for the kids was £100 short at the end of October... said it was all he could afford. Obviously he is splashing all his cash on Carmen Miranda and her child.... sigh

Anyway.. I've been to a solicitor and the divorce is getting started. He has always talked about leaving this country so I have a strong suspicion he will bugger off with this other woman.. maybe not to Venezuela but to Spain. He has always talked about living there. I'm well shot of him but it makes me so sad for my kids. Rhiannon used to adore her daddy and I've just watched that disappear for her.

Oops... didn't mean to write such an essay!
