Extramarital affairs have often been marriage busters, but married women leading an already troubled married life getting 'personal' with their personal trainers has resulted in many couples going straight to court to part ways. These couples are usually rich, with the men exceedingly busy with their businesses, and the women finding solace and support in the trainers, lawyers point out.
"There have been cases where day in and day out, a young housewife meets a trainer at her gym at a time when the marriage is not doing too well itself. The rapport with the trainer leads her to confide in him. They thus get drawn into a close relation that starts with having a cup of coffee or lingering a little longer at the gym," says top divorce lawyer Mridula Kadam.
"These cases are usually eventually filed jointly by mutual consent," says Mrinalini Deshmukh, another veteran lawyer practising divorce law. But the run-up to the court filings, usually bitter, involves hiring a detective or roping in technology to track down a gym towel or a text trail, she says. According to another lawyer, one man used a software that tracks and extracts mail to catch his cheating wife.
In one case that came up in the Bandra family court, a rich and busy industrialist husband took custody of his two minor children but left his twenty-something wife with a considerable alimony and a residence at tony Breach Candy. The husband had found out that she was not merely spending time doing yoga with her fitness instructor. In another case, the woman was a 45-year-old who turned out routinely in designer gym gear and the instructor at her local gym was a much younger but fit man of modest means. The husband was, of course, mostly away on business trips. Part of the appeal of many instructors is the fact that they are very fit and, increasingly, more and more of them speak English fluently.
In most such cases, even the woman's parents support the son-in-law, says a lawyer who has handled such cases. "They don't want to support their daughter. Usually the woman is financially not independent and does not have a career to cushion a fall. The businessman husband sets the tone for a settlement and wants to keep the children with him and even when he gives her the residence, he gives her only the right to stay there, not ownership rights."
So in such cases, the decision-making in the settlement boils down to who has the money. With the husband's trust and wealth gone, women find they cannot sustain a legal battle even if they choose not to let a 'slip-up' split the family, a senior lawyer says.
"It is very sad," Kadam says. "Some women regret the indiscretion but by then the damage to the marital bond is done." She stresses the need for couples to "nurture their relationships." Top counsellor Anjali Chhabria agrees. "Men and women need to invest more time and energy to make a marriage last."
