I am sure, it was because it would have shamed him if this got out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I waited for the first Mrs to divorce ME in the UK (as I wasn't bothered, and certainly wasn't going to pay)...and such 'foreign' divorces are perfectly legal in the Phils for us FOREIGNERS, of course. Only their own CITIZENS are subject to the 'no-divorce' rule here...and a problem for them, not 'us'. Then, after having visited the original divorce court in the UK for a copy of my 'Decree Absolute' (9 years later), this was taken to my appointment at the British Embassy in Manila, in order to procure my 'Affirmation of Marital Status '....which was later presented (along with a letter from the Embassy) in order to procure my/our marriage licence, up here in the province. No problem at all. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/marriage-in-the-philippines 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
