Overview
- The couple from Dezhou, Shandong, married since 2016, saw the dispute go public after the wife, surnamed Yuan, spoke to Henan TV in mid-October and filed for divorce.
- Records cited in reports show the husband won 10.17 million yuan on December 17 last year, taking home 8.14 million yuan after tax.
- Yuan says he gambled and tipped female live-streamers large sums, including a single 1.2 million yuan gift, and she confronted him after discovering he traveled with one for four days.
- She says he gave her a bank card he claimed held 3 million yuan for shared expenses, but she later found the account had no funds.
- The husband told media he had spent all the money and said the court should decide, while a lawyer quoted in coverage noted the wife can seek to exclude him from asset division or pursue recovery of funds tied to an immoral relationship.
