A cheating husband who had a child outside his marriage will be getting half of his estranged wifes pension fund in a divorce settlement.
The couple, who were married in community of property, initially argued their divorce settlement in the Magistrate Court, where it was ruled that the husband should get a share of the wifes pension fund.
Disenchanted with the outcome, the wife approached the Limpopo High Court in Polokwane on appeal.
The former lovers were estranged for two years before the husband filed a divorce, saying the wife cheated on him with several men.
He added that she went on vacation to Thailand with another man. He also ran into them at a restaurant, where they told him they were in love and that there was nothing he could do about it. Moreover, the wife told him he could file for divorce.
