Woman appeals against divorce refusal.
A woman who says she is "desperately unhappy" in her 39-year marriage is fighting a legal battle against a court's refusal to grant her divorce.
Why? Because her husband disagreed and said the couple still had a "few years" to enjoy. (He's 78, she's 66.)
Judge Robin Tolson ruled against Mrs Owens in the family court last year, concluding that her allegations were "of the kind to be expected in marriage" and refused to grant a divorce petition.
To be quite frank, fuck that. No one can force you to remain married in the UK.
