Cape Town – A Cape Town woman who refused to have sex with her husband for seven years is now suing him for a whopping R1.3 million – because he took a second wife.

In an interview, the husband said that he had been patiently waiting for his wife to fulfil her marital obligation, but claimed she always had an excuse ready for not sleeping with him.

Now the wife, who can’t be named for legal reasons, has left him.

And she wants to sue him for R1.3 million – because he took a second wife.

But the businessman, 30, said his money-grabbing first wife is not entitled to one blue cent – and that he will fight her all the way in the highest courts.

The bitter husband said his first wife, to whom he is still married, has turned their union into a mockery.

“For the first year of our marriage, her excuse was that she was bleeding continuously, she said it was because of the contraceptive she was on,” he said.

“After that her excuse was that she was too tense, or that she simply wasn’t ready, but she kept promising ‘tomorrow night’.

“I told her a man has needs, and what does she tell me? ‘I’m not ready, do what you have to do’.

“Now what do you make of that?”
