Infidelity Reaps Rewards For Family Of Cheating Husband
July 15th, 2009 by The Babe
If you’re considering cheating on your wife, you may pay in more ways than one. It appears that cheating husband,Robert Charlton, had a roving eye for the ladies but was consumed with guilt and each time he strayed he’d buy his wife, Elizabeth, a bigger and more expensive piece of jewelry.
These little sex on the side love affairs were worth nearly $500,000 to his heirs, who sold their mother’s jewelry at auction in London.
The most expensive item in the auction was a Rivière necklace made up of 54 diamonds, which sold for £50,000. The auctioneers believe Mr Charlton would have paid at least £5,500 for it in the 1960s.
Other highlights included a large pendant which went for £44,000 and a chunky diamond solitaire ring that sold for £19,000. A pair of drop earrings went for £18,000 and a gold bangle decorated with nine diamonds fetched £20,000.
The Charlton’s were married 25 years and Robert’s sex affairs were an open secret in the family. Considering that 43 pieces of the love booty were sold, and the family kept some pieces, it’s now wonder poor Robert died at 63 and Elizabeth survived him until 2006 when she passed away at the age of 90.
