Ex-Chelsea midfielder Geremi files for divorce: Former Chelsea and Cameroon midfielder Geremi Njitap has initiated divorce proceedings against his spouse, Laure Fotso, following revelations from DNA testing that his purported twins were biologically linked to her former partner.
Geremi, aged 45, has asserted that the revelation regarding the parentage of the twins, who were conceived during a clandestine encounter of his wife with an ex-lover, has severely impacted their marriage.
According to legal documents, he has accused Laure of significantly disrupting the marital harmony with her deplorable actions and continuous deception, stating, that – No children have resulted from this marriage.
He explained that the presumption that the twins, born in June 2008 — a significant time before the couple’s nuptials in 2012 — was his primary motivator for their union.
