Tuesday, August 27, 2024 -A football star has reportedly been accused of handing over just £8 a month to his ex-girlfriend in child maintenance.
The former player said to be a regular
on TV and radio, allegedly hid his assets so that he would only have to pay the
minimum amount in child support.
His struggling ex-girlfriend claims he owes
her hundreds of thousands of pounds for supporting the 14-year-old son they
share together.
She told The Sun: 'My son has
had to eat £1.80 packet noodles for dinner on really hard days. It broke my
heart'.
'Anything I earn goes towards him and my
house,' she added.
According to the newspaper, the couple
dated for two years before she became pregnant. He spent part of his 20-year
career in the Championship.
When she revealed the news about her
pregnancy, he revealed he was actually married.
She said she foolishly accepted the
former footballer's offer of £10,000 not to take their financial row to a
tribunal. But admitted she expected the basic child maintenance payments to
continue.
The girlfriend added: 'Officials tell me
their records show he is earning less than £7 a week, so he can send what he
wants.
'He comes across as a jovial guy. His
hypocrisy is jaw-dropping.'
