It’s certainly a rarity for a woman to benefit from discovering the revelation that her husband had been having anaffairbehind her back, but that’s exactly what happened in England on this miraculous Christmas Day.

“The children went to stay with relatives for a short period whilst the couple talked, as they did that night,” heard the tribunal. “In fact, [Jacqueline] never moved out of the pub and the children soon returned.”
Instead of working at thepub, however, Jacqueline would, at most, perform duties that helped the business such as chipping logs, mowing the lawns, and visiting Costco for replenishment — although this happened only once.

Her husband continued to pay her salary of £758 a month, additionally encouraging her to “think about things” before making any “long-term decisions.”
However, problems became even worse four months later.
The tribunal heard that her husband issued her with a P45 — a tax form in theUnited Kingdomthat an employer gives to an employee when they leave their job, consisting of income and tax information — without her knowledge.

She successfully sued him and the family company in response, under the pretense of unfair and wrongful dismissal, unauthorized pay deductions, and victimization.
Jacqueline was awarded a total of £9,676 in compensation.
Initially, Stefan and the business tried arguing that she had already “resigned” on May 30, when she discovered the affair, but the tribunal disagreed.
“[Mr. Herling’s] evidence was that he wanted to give [his wife] time to think about things. He did not want her to leave and left the position open,” said the panel.
“In those circumstances, the Tribunal considered that [Mr. Herling] did not, at the time, consider [his wife] to have resigned.”
Mrs. Herling won almost£10,000 in compensation
