Husband dumps his wife with online message in 'world's first divorce by Facebook'

Quote:

A wife discovered her 12-year marriage was over after her husband posted a message on Facebook.

Emma Brady, 39, only learned of the posting when her best friend living in Denmark telephoned to see if she was alright.

The message read: 'Neil Brady has ended her marriage to Emma Brady.'

Her shock was all the greater because she and husband Neil were still sharing a house in Accrington, Lancashire, at the time.

It is believed to be the first time a couple have separated using the social networking website.

The mother-of-one said: 'We were like any other couple. We had our ups and downs but as far as I knew things were fine between us.

'When I got the phone call I was shell-shocked. My first instinct was to phone him but my friends at work insisted I should speak to him face to face.'

The conference manager added: 'When I got home I asked Neil if he had anything to tell me and he simply said no. He acted like everything was fine.

'This whole thing has been really terrible.

'All the friends I have on the site are people I have known for years so it's been really humiliating having everything happen so publicly.

'The irony is if he had just asked me for a divorce I would have agreed because I would never have wanted to make him unhappy.'

The bizarre way to end a marriage was revealed at Blackburn Magistrates' Court, which heard the tensions between the couple came to a head after they had both been out with colleagues at Christmas.

In the row that followed, Mrs Brady suffered a wrist injury when she was thrown out of the house wearing only a dressing gown.

IT consultant Neil Brady, 39, of Baxenden, pleaded guilty to assault and was fined £580 and ordered to pay £100 compensation and £75 costs.

Catherine Allan, prosecuting, told the court: 'He claimed a police officer had seen her with another man in Accrington and when she told him to contact her manager and ask where she had been he accused her of having an affair with him.'

Brady took his wife's handbag and started to search for her mobile phone which she refused to give him.

'He grabbed her by the wrist and threw her out of the back door and locked it,' said Miss Allan.

Gareth Price, defending, said his client claimed he had spoken to his wife several times and suggested a separation.

He rejected her claim that the first she knew of it was on Facebook.

The couple have separated but have yet to initiate formal divorce proceedings.
