Man With 69 Kids And 12 Wives Is Dragged To Divorce Court ('Wonder Why?' Said No One)

Man With 69 Kids And 12 Wives Is Dragged To Divorce Court

A Zimbabwaen businessman with 69 kids may have one less thing to juggle soon -- one of his 12 wives has asked for a divorce.

Sixty-one-year old Peter Remi Gore was taken to divorce court in Zimbabwe by wife Sethekele Gore, the mother of seven of his children, reported myzimbabwe.co.zw.

According to the report, Gore begged the court for a divorce, saying, "I am no longer interested in the relationship despite Peter's vast wealth which he claims to be pampering me with. All I want is peace in my life." She also asked for $1,150 in monthly child support.

This is only one of many unusual divorce stories we've heard. In 2012, a man in southern Israel divorced his wife after she brought home 550 cats, and later that year, a woman in Nigeria divorced her husband after six years of marriage because he talked too much.
