That seems odd to me.

Being a Law Student, I've just learnt all about divorce. Her divorce settlement should be a figure that will enable her to live the life she has enjoyed by being married to Leon for two years (possibly more depending on how young the children are).

?42k for a footballers wife with four kids seems paltry. Her solicitor should have been easily able to push for that much as a lump sum and periodical payments - infringement of which could leave Leon paying more or behind bars, even.

Seems very dodgy to me.
