A British businessman rushed to the hospital after catching the nurse wife Zim cheating with her lover in the marital room
A nurse who claimed that her wealthy fiancé had "filled" luxury gifts launched her engagement ring while she was ordered to repay him more than £ 200,000.
37-year-old Trish Garikayi claimed to be a "guarded woman" during her six-year relationship with 58-year-old shopkeeper Wisdom Penfold and received gifts including a Porsche 911 and a 100-diamond bracelet. £ 1,000 from Mayfair Aspreys jewelers.
However, Mr. Penfold insisted that Miss Garikayi "was diverting" money while he was blinded by love, spending large sums that he had planned for that year. They buy a house together.
The couple split up in 2015 when Mr. Penfold found him in bed with another man, which resulted in a bitter struggle in court to get money.
Judge Alexander Hill-Smith vindicated Mr. Penfold yesterday, ordering Miss Garikayi to repay £ 116,000, put 20% of her home at £ 340,000 and pay £ 62,000 of legal bills.
After the judge had declared that Miss Garikayi was staring at the winner of the trial and that he did not believe his testimony, she withdrew her £ 2,500 engagement ring and threw her to through the audience hall towards Mr. Penfold.
The businessman, importer and exporter of trees, quietly picked up the discarded jewelry and handed it to his lawyer.
The Central London County Court heard the couple meet after a meeting at a hospital cafe in 2009, and they got engaged four years later.
But Mr. Penfold was devastated when he returned home in 2015 to find Miss Garikayi in bed with another man (a doctor), and was so shaken that he needed to be rushed to A & E.
Miss Garikayi claimed that the couple had already separated, but Judge Hill-Smith said he believed Mr. Penfold's "convincing" story about the end of their "perfect" relationship.
The court heard that £ 218,000 had been paid into Ms Garikayi's account after the sale of two investment properties by Mr Penfold, but she insisted that it was a gift because 'if I wanted anything thing, I would have it. "
"The nature of the relationship was one in which Mr. Penfold granted and filled Miss Garikayi with lavish gifts," said his lawyer, Chike Ezike.
Mr Penfold had taken her on a luxury trip to Paris, Spain, Indonesia and Dubai, and he would have bought a Porsche, a BMW, a Mercedes and the £ 100,000 bracelet.
But Mr Penfold denied being so generous: "I think if I gave £ 100,000 for a bracelet, I'll remember it quite well. I think it would be welded into my brain for the rest of my life. "
He agreed to buy gifts from Miss Garikayi, including a Burberry coat and Jimmy Choo shoes, but he denied handing over large sums of money or never buying him a car.
His lawyer, Richard Alford, said that Miss Garikayi insisted on depositing £ 218,000 on his account to mark "the seriousness of their relationship".
"He did what was asked, telling him that the funds had to be kept in the account and not used unless he said so," Alford said.
However, Miss Garikayi then spent money for herself, including £ 91,000 to buy a property in Harare, Zimbabwe, without her permission, the court said.
The judge found that Penfold also paid a deposit of £ 35,000 on Miss Garikayi's property in Guildford which she had bought for £ 275,000 in 2015, as well as renovations and two mortgage payments. This expense now entitles her to a share of the property.
The judge said the purchase of a house in Zimbabwe was "a breach of trust" because he had decided in favor of Mr. Penfold on his financial claims.
Miss Garikayi now has six months to buy her ex from the Guildford property, or it will be sold and the product divided.
As a result of this decision, she was ordered to pay £ 30,000 in court costs to Mr Penfold within three weeks and was informed that the lawyers would seek to double that bill.
