A MOTHER seeking to return to Cape Town from the Netherlands will be able to conduct her divorce proceedings in the Western Cape High Court, following the court's approval of her application.

- CHEVON BOOYSEN

The couple relocated to the Netherlands earlier this year in an attempt to salvage their marriage. However, after their relationship deteriorated, the wife initiated divorce proceedings in midApril, under the arrangement of living abroad for a trial period.

Having gone on a number of international vacations with the wife’s family, the court heard that after a family holiday in Mauritius, one of the issues that bedevilled the couple’s relationship was a letter written by the husband to the wife’s extended family. The wife described the content of those letters as “vile”, “vicious”, and “hideous”.
