By Spear's

The award to the 48-year-old woman, who cannot be identified for legal reasons, includes a lump sum of £38million

A former wife has been awarded a divorce settlement of more than £53million against her businessman husband by a High Court judge.

The award to the 48-year-old woman, who cannot be identified for legal reasons, includes a lump sum of £38million.

Details of the case have been made public in an anonymised judgment given today by Mrs Justice Eleanor King in London.

The case involves a Russian husband and wife who have lived in England since 2005 and have two children together. They lived a ‘lavish lifestyle’ and their family home in central London was bought for £3.825million.

The couple married in 1991, but she divorced him in Russia in 2009 after 17 years of marriage.
