'When money looks like flying out of the window, love walks out the door,' said Sandra Davis, head of one of London's leading legal firms, Mishcon de Reya.

As the first thing that gets sold in a divorce is usually the house we can expect a few more forced sales adding to the stock of unsold housing. Another drop in the house price crash bucket.

"Suddenly she's no longer the wife of the high-flying executive who lunches with the rest of the ladies, lives in a certain area and sends her children to a certain school. The impact of having to rediscover who she is can create feelings of anger and worthlessness" - you mean rediscover she's a..... high class hooker? Do we really need to pretend otherwise. The hubbies are no psychologists either.
