Divorce no excuse for bad behaviour

WHO says British etiquette experts Debrett’s don’t move with the times?

The chroniclers of the cream of British society since the late  1700s have put together a book on how to behave during a divorce.

The idea is to assist emotionally distraught couples in maintaining decorum in the midst of their battles over custody and cash.

Debrett’s has teamed up with divorce lawyers Mishcon de Reya,  who represented the late Princess Diana, for the publication.

The Debrett’s Guide to Civilised Separation provides tips on how  to break the news to friends and colleagues and information on the  process of divorce.

“Throwing your husband’s vintage wine collection down the loo or  cutting his suits to shreds might seem like a therapeutic gesture  when you’re in the throes of rage and despair, but it can rebound  on you and undermine your case,” the book advises.
