Admitted Adulterer Gets $40 Million in Divorce
From Times Wire Reports
A judge in Bridgeport has awarded the former wife of a multimillionaire businessman a divorce settlement worth more than $40 million even though she admitted having affairs with her rock-climbing guide and a man she met on a flight to China.
In addition to a $24 million payment, Susan Sosin will keep the couple’s $3.6 million Manhattan apartment, a Utah ski house and a home in Wallkill, N.Y.
Richard Albrecht, lawyer for Sosin’s husband, Howard, estimated the total value of the award at $43 million, or 27% of the estate. She wanted half, he said.
