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.'
