The wife of former England Rugby Union star Lawrence Dallaglio is racing to sell the couple’s £2.7million home in order to save him from a potential bankruptcy order
Lawrence Dallaglio’s wife is trying to sell their £2.7million house in a bid to shield her husband from bankruptcy.
As reported by Telegraph Sport, Alice Dallaglio took steps at the High Court on Friday, seeking a validation order that would permit the immediate disposal of the couple’s Richmond abode, where they lived for nearly a quarter of a century. The sale comes amid divorce proceedings between the duo, who have been wed for 20 years.
The former Rugby Union legend faces the grim possibility of bankruptcy, a subject brought into focus during an Insolvency and Companies Court hearing on Tuesday.
At 52, Lawrence narrowly sidestepped financial ruin two years ago, clearing debts which tallied up to £700,000 in unsettled taxes.
Once on the brink of bankruptcy due to a petition from HM Revenue and Customs, he was able to shake off the threat in 2023 after engaging in an individual voluntary arrangement, reports
