Controversy surrounding Binding Financial Agreements – or pre-nups, as they are more commonly known – has again been enlivened by publicity surrounding the recent 'pole dancer case.' This case, as reported by The Sydney Morning Herald on 24 February 2013, is about a Mr Wallace seeking to set aside a pre-nup between himself and his former wife, whom he met at a pole-dancing club in Sydney. The agreement, signed by the couple prior to their marriage, required amongst other terms that Mr Wallace pay his wife $3,250,000 should their marriage break down within four years. The couple separated two years following their marriage and Mrs Wallace sought to enforce the agreement. However, Mr Wallace claimed it was invalid because he says Mrs Wallace lied when she told him prior to their marriage that she loved him and wanted to spend the rest of her life with him.
