Former Cameroonian and Chelsea football star, Geremi Njitap has filed for divorce to end his marriage with his wife after finding out that he raised twins that were never his during 12 years of marriage.
The 45-year-old has been
married to Toukam Fotso Laure Verline for over a decade.
According to The Sun, the
couple’s twins were born after the player’s wife Laure had a fling.

The UK Sun reports that court
documents in Geremi’s native Cameroon show Toukam “destroyed the harmony” of
their marriage “through her abject behaviour”.
They also mention her “repeated
lies”, and add: “No children have been born from this union.”
Toukam had claimed the twins
born in June 2008 — four years before the couple’s marriage were his, which
motivated them to get married.
“But the discovery that the
children were from her previous partner destroyed the couple’s harmony,” the
documents add.
