A financier s widow is claiming £38million from insurers for the blaze that gutted the couple s stately home – despite admitting her late husband confessed he started the fire.
Michael Treichl told his wife he took responsibility for the inferno 16 days after 500-year-old Parnham House in Dorset burnt down in 2017, legal documents reveal.
The banker drowned himself two months later.
His widow Emma Treichl, 58, is now locked in a High Court battle over the allegedly fraudulent claim.
The former Vogue model did not tell the insurers her late husband had admitted responsibility until nearly two years later, during which time she had ratified the claim he had started on the property, it is alleged.
