Updated | By East Coast Drive
A husband was left in shock after finding out that his wife had a secret life of gambling.
Metro reported that a man was left completely financially broke by his wife who gambled away over £3,500,000 (R60-million). He claimed he never noticed the debt or that almost R2-million of his and his parents' money had all gone, until only after the split.
When they first met in 2010, he was completely smitten with his wife who was working for an IT firm.
