I'm reading and some of it I was reading online.

on Monday, the day he pled guilty for the first time, items that I just wasn't aware of.

And that's quite difficult for me to come to terms with.

Some of the items I was aware of, including things he'd bought for me as gifts and presented to me as gifts that he had bought for me,

None of these things I would have looked at and thought, how on earth could he afford them?

You know, we were two people on high salaries.

We don't have children.

We didn't have.

an extensive social life, mainly because of the pressures of my job.

We very rarely went on holiday.

So we had incomes that would, as far as I could see, would have supported anything that I was seeing in my house.

I think the other thing, which is just a fact of life, I was the first minister of the country.

I was working round the clock most days.

I wasn't at home very often.

I didn't take...

much, if anything, to do with the administration of our household.

I mean, just to explain how our finances work, we had separate bank accounts.

I never had any access to his bank account.

He didn't have any to mine.

Every month I would pass him a sum of money to cover my share of the household expenses and leave him to it and give him a bit more because I was First Minister.
