Football tycoon’s ex-wife wins huge pay-out in High Court divorce
Mr Vince claimed they separated in 2021, but Ms Vince alleges they were “continuing a physical and emotional relationship right up to February 2022”.
Lawyers for Ms Vince, 50, said her ex-husband, 63, had been giving away their matrimonial assets in a “wanton and reckless” fashion.
This included the gift to the Labour Party, as well as £100,000 to the Cheltenham Muslim Association and £8.4m to his foundation, the Green Britain Foundation, which includes support for Forest Green Rovers FC.
However, Mr Vince told the court he donated to Labour because he saw the general election as the opportunity for a government that wanted to do something about net zero.
In his 20-page ruling on Friday, Mr Justice Cusworth said: “I consider that the wife should receive 50% of the marital element of the value in the businesses, and not less.”
The first payment of £13.94m will be made to Ms Vince by 30 April, with the further two to follow annually, the judge ordered.
