Martina Navratilova sued by 'wife' after being 'dumped without warning'

[bijou]

Tennis legend Martina Navratilova is being sued for millions of pounds by a former lover who claims she was dumped without warning after nearly eight years.

Toni Layton, 56, who married the nine-times Wimbledon champion in an official wedding ceremony, is demanding a share of four multi-million dollar homes bought during their time together.

Her lawsuit extends to the 'emotional, mental and physical trauma' she suffered after being 'removed' from 52-year-old Navratilova's life a year ago.

Layton said: 'Martina has got a fight on her hands. Without any warning, my life came crashing down around me. I was kicked out on the streets with only the clothes on my back.'
The lawsuit claims the couple agreed to 'evenly share' all funds and assets earned and obtained by either while together' when they wed in New Hampshire in 2000.

This includes a classic Mercedes Benz, two Land Rovers, a Jeep, a speedboat, two jet-skis, two scooters and two all-terrain vehicles.

It also claims Navratilova, 52, has refused to return gifts including jewellery, a bicycle, ceramic pots, pets and even three guns - two shotguns and a pistol.

The romance began in 2000 when Toni had been in New Hampshire visiting friends and Martina decided to join her. ...

Martina has not had good luck with her girlfriends/wives over the years.  One of her prominent former lovers had a son that I went to college with.  He drove a $100,000 car, and was teased incessantly about his mother and Martina.

Well, LGBT community, you wanted equality, how do you like equally ugly divorce court battles?

Yep. Time for them to experience the joys of family court.
