Grand Piano causes drama for Lebo M and ex-wife
In a previous report from Briefly News, Lebo M’s legal rep reportedly argued that his ex-wife Pretty Samuels has no rights to the Blüthner grand piano in the divorce settlement.
Lebo M’s lawyer said that the instrument is valued up to R1.6 million, but it was not part of the settlement. The matter has been forwarded to the court to come up with a resolution.
“There's only one valid settlement agreement, and it was made an order of the court. There wasn't any agreement. No consent. No justification to remove, sell, or dispose of that instrument. Only deception.”
