A senior BBC producer today lost a court battle to slash her unemployed ex-husband s share of their £2million fortune.
Tessa Finch, who founded The One Show and has earned £160,000-a-year as head of development at the corporation, separated from Barry Baker between 2012 and 2013.
London s Civil Appeal Court heard that former journalist Mr Baker, 69, had not worked for some time and had run up £66,000 worth of debts - while Ms Finch accumulated a substantial BBC pension valued by a court at £2million.
During divorce proceedings, Mr Baker was awarded a £733,650 sum of the couple s assets and was even handed a one-third share of Ms Finch s pension.
