Porsche billionaire divorcing wife, 74, over 'dementia-like illness'

A billionaire has cited his elderly wife's "dementia-like illness" as the reason behind filing divorce papers. Wolfgang Porsche, a Porsche executive, filed for divorce from Claudia Porsche, claiming that her personality had changed as a result of the disease.

Wolfgang and Claudia started dating in 2007 and they got married in 2019. However, according to sources close to the family, the 74-year-old woman's condition poses barriers for her and her 79-year-old husband to live together, the Mirror reports.

The Porsche family's holdings are said to be worth around 20 billion Euros (£18 billion). Claudia, a grandma who has lived close to her daughter for almost two years, has four carers who look after her.
