Moreover, he has splurged money in restaurants and nightclubs. Bjoern has a luxurious rental accommodation in London. He also gave his new girlfriend USD 150k. Joe Rainer, Leah’s lawyer stated:
“The fact that he has not paid a penny betrays the obvious: he is not paying because he doesn’t think he should have to, not because he can’t afford to,”
