A court has dismissed a cheating husbands application seeking to compel his wife to maintain a child he fathered out of wedlock.
The unemployed man also wanted a cut of the womans earning from the eight cottages she rents out from their matrimonial home in Germiston, Ekurhuleni. The home was originally hers before they entered their community of property marriage in April 2022. At the time, the husband was 30 while the woman was 46.
The woman earns R7,200 per month from the business and the man wanted to claim R4,500 to maintain a child he fathered in an extramarital affair in June last year.
