Robbie Keane and his wife have won a £300,000 court fight to kick an elderly fashionista out of their £3.8million family home.The former Celtic striker and his TV star wife Claudine have been locked in an emotional fight for three years with 74-year-old fashion boss Sandi St Paul and her musician "pal" Stewart Lawrence.
It came after they rented out their family mansion in Hertfordshire in December 2019.The Irish footballer and his wife let their house after Keane secured coaching jobs in Middlesbrough and Ireland.
As reported by the Irish Mirror, the pair then became more and more at odds with St Paul and Lawrence - who was a drummer for sixties icon Donovan - after rent payments stopped in April 2020.The Keanes this week told Central London County Court the pair owe them nearly £300,000 in back rent, adding that Mrs Keane, 42, had been reduced to tears and "begging" for access to her home during the row.Sandi St Paul, who as well as being a property developer has run a string of fashion boutiques, told Judge Heather Baucher that she and Lawrence had withheld rent on the £8,000-a-month house after being left with "no heating or hot water for two winters" by their famous landlords.
She added that she felt the stress of the situation had led to her having a stroke.But the judge has now ordered her out of the house - on pain of being evicted by High Court sheriffs - and handed her and Mr Lawrence a bill for £292,192 rent arrears, plus £70,000 towards the Keane's legal fees.The court heard the Keanes rented out their home in late 2019 after the striker hung up his boots.
