Cesc Fabregas’s love rival wins court fight against huge £4.5m court bill Elie Taktouk married Daniella Semaan but they split 13 years later when she left him for ex-Arsenal and Chelsea star Fabregas.
Fresh evidence from his brother Dr Wassim Taktouk suggested that far from having an interest in significant family wealth, Taktouk had in fact been cut out of his father's will and no right to any family money.
During a previous Appeal Court hearing, Lord Justice Stuart-Smith said that, during the project, Taktouk had repeatedly diverted investors' money to his own accounts, which he used to spend on rent, school fees, a car and his lawyers' bills.
Dr Wassim Taktouk told the court that his businessman father had died in 2022 and that his final will in 2016 left nothing to his brother Elie.
She later married Cesc Fabregas] Following the divorce, Taktouk embarked on a campaign of fraud, conning property investors out of their cash, which he spent on his lawyers' bills, rent, his kids' school fees, and to buy a Porsche.
