John Burton Races' ex-wife declared bankrupt

Michelin-starred chef John Burton Race's ex-wife Kim has been declared bankrupt by London's high court for money owed on their old family home.

The order is for an undisclosed amount due for renovation work done to the former couple's Grade-II listed Victorian Rectory in Ashprington, Devon.

Kim, who has two children by John and four by her previous marriage, had offered to pay off the debt to Crownhill Renovations at £50 a week but this was rejected. She reportedly won a £3.6 million settlement when they divorced almost two years ago.

Kim was also responsible for shutting their Michelin-starred restaurant, The New Angel in Dartmouth down while he was on the reality TV show I'm a Celebrity Get me Outta Here.  

John Burton Race left Kim and their children  in 2007 for his mistress Suzi Ward, with whom he'd had a lovechild. He also has two other children from his first marriage to Christine.
