Asos founder Nick Robertson, 48, ordered to pay his ex-wife £70 million

The founder of fashion site Asos, one of the World's leading clothing online retail company has been forced to pay his ex-wife £70 million following a High Court divorce battle which was sparked when he move in with his PA - who is 15 years his junior.
The court heard Mr Robertson stepped down as ASOS chief executive in September. ASOS was founded in 2000, fours years before the couple wed, and now sells more than 80,000 branded and own-brand products to nearly 10 million customers.

Nick Robertson, 48, one of the UK's richest men, had argued his former wife Janine, 43, should get about £30 million worth of assets - while she insisted she should get closer to £110 million.

A judge ruled the mother-of-two should get a third of the entrepreneur's £220 million fortune in a public trial after the pair failed to reach a settlement.

Mr Robertson reportedly moved out of his £8.3 million six-bedroom family home in Wimbledon, London, in March 2014 and was pictured hand-in-hand with his ex-PA Charlotte Balin months later.

Cole‘s “No Role Modelz,” on which he raps, “My only regret was too young for Lisa Bonet / My only regret was too young for Nia Long / Now all I’m left with is h*es from reality shows / Gave her the script the b*tch probably couldn’t read a long.” Nia’s response to that? “He’s really not too young.
