”Without
making a determination as to the sexual desirability of Kevin, it is possible
that Kevin did not get enough sex during marriage but many marriages are
sexually dysfunctional . . . Kevin jumped off the diving board too soon when he
got married.”
–Orange
County Superior Court Judge Michael J. Naughton before ruling about whether a
Brazilian-born, part-time fitness instructor named Fernanda was entitled to
spousal support from Kevin, her accountant husband who earned more than
$230,000-a-year. After the couple's quick Las Vegas marriage, Fernanda got a
permanent resident card, left his Laguna Beach home, moved in with her
financially supportive “female paramour” in Los Angeles and declared that
California law entitled her to dual sources of support because she hadn't moved
in with someone of the opposite sex. An unimpressed Naughton ruled against her.
In late December, a California court of appeal based in Santa Ana backed the judge's decision and
ordered the woman to pay Kevin's legal costs.
