AGS has not provided full and frank disclosure of his financial circumstances and business interests, faces substantial hurdles in establishing any substantive claim to matrimonial property or need, and the impact on RKS of making a LSPO would be unfair. Accordingly, the application for a LSPO is refused.
Source excerpt
A fair outcome is achieved by equal sharing of non-pension assets, transfer of the Bristol property to the wife, payment of a lump sum by the husband to the wife, and a pension sharing order for 27.5% of the husband's Quilter SIPP, reflecting 55% of the pension as matrimonial property. No add-back for gifts to adult children is warranted, and the wife's needs do not justify provision above the sharing claim.

The High Court refused D7-D8’s bid to expand disclosure and further information, holding that partnership accounting and asset tracing should follow trial on liability.
AGS v RKS [2026] EWFC 104 (B) (10 April 2026)
Interim financial remedy application for maintenance pending suit and legal services funding was considered; the court refused the LSPO application.
Assets placed in respondent's name were not matrimonialised, remained applicant's non-matrimonial funds, and division should be based on respondent's needs rather than sharing principle. No evidence of gifting or shared treatment over time. Respondent's needs are met by award; remainder stays with applicant.

BS v HC [2026] EWFC 20 (B) (03 February 2026)
Financial remedies judgment on pension apportionment, matrimonialisation, add-back and needs. The court ordered equal sharing of non-pension assets plus a pension share and clean break.
Wife's entitlement to matrimonial assets is reduced to 30% of combined value due to lack of financial contribution and egregious conduct, including coercive control, fraud, and abuse. Payment of £750,000 from husband to wife, with wife retaining Leicester property and other assets, achieves fair outcome and meets wife's needs.
Source excerpt
Applicant was habitually resident in England at the time of her divorce application and for the preceding twelve months. Respondent failed to prove E country is a more appropriate forum. English proceedings should not be stayed. Applicant's claim to trust assets in E country is illusory unless she proves lack of consent to transfer. English court has jurisdiction and is the natural forum for the parties' disputes.
