What does amaze me however is how could she afford to take this case before the Supreme Court, would she be entitled to legal aid?

They Married and Divorced when they both had nothing.
He got off his backside and built up a successful Business, by himself.
She sees what he's done and chances her arm (legal aid?) to get a share of it, but it's not hers to have, she contributed nothing.
No she is not entitled as far as I am concerned!
We're all going to drown in lawyer's saliva, after this ruling.
My gut reaction was "no way" but now learn there is a son which moderates my view, somewhat.
As long as the ruling is extremely specific, to the point of limiting copycat cases to a handful and the specifics are kept under wraps then I'm not fussed. Otherwise it just looks like something concocted purely so the (otherwise esteemable) legal profession can take their cut from every self-made entrepreneur out there, in similar fashion.

it sort of reads as if he didn't do a lot for her or the son apart from give them the occasional £200 and second-hand car.
The judges said "Clearly Mr Vince's current wealth does not on its own give her a claim. She seems to have considerable financial needs but whether she can establish they have in any way been generated by the marriage remains to be seen."
So this isn't about his millions, it's about whether he owes support starting way before that.
And it's not about whether she's entitled to anything. They haven't got to that stage yet. It's about whether she's entitled to go to court and ask for it.
If you'd read your own Mail links, I wouldn't have to do it for you.

No you shouldnt be amazed - if she wins then she will have to pay the legal aid back
The big thing is .... they didnt get a financial order
That is the clean cut where the judge says there is no returning to raking over the ashes. In fact it is said he ( rich boy to be ) opposed a financial order twenty years ago...
A final order is the the thing Judge judy refers to when she says
JJ didja get a final order settling everything after ya divorce ?
Grasping plaintiff (GP) yeah
JJ well get outta here.
GP uh ?
JJ ya know I cant go behind a final order
GP well yeah we were told that
JJ case dismissed !
Not very applicable to everyone because they all get financial orders
