I’M not sure American former tennis star Chris Evert has done women generally a favour with the excuse she gave for ditching her husband and running off with his friend.
She blamed “menopausal stuff” for leaving her 18-year marriage to Olympic skier Andy Mill to be with golfer Greg Norman. Many women do go through terrible symptoms, physically and mentally, when they’re on the change but it’s not often used to explain marriage break-ups.
I’d have thought more of her if she hadn’t bothered with that excuse, and just stood by her behaviour as something she chose to do then.
