Jurors found he had made £390,000-worth of payments from his business account following his bankruptcy to nine others, including his ex-wife Barbara and estranged wife Sharlely "Lilly" Becker, who is the mother of his fourth child. He had been cleared of a further 20 charges, which included nine counts of failing to hand over his tennis trophies and medals.
