Divorces are never pretty, but this one got pretty ugly -- literally.
A Chinese man divorced and then sued his ex-wife for giving birth to what he called an extremely ugly baby girl, the Irish Times reported.
Initially, Jian Feng accused his wife of infidelity, so sure that he could never father an unattractive child.
When a DNA test proved that the baby was his, Feng's wife came clean on a little secret -- before they met, she had undergone about $100,000 worth of cosmetic surgery in South Korea.
Feng sued his ex-wife on the grounds of false pretenses, for not telling him about the plastic surgery and duping him into thinking she was beautiful, The Huffington Post reported.
The kicker? He won. A judge agreed with Feng's argument and ordered his ex-wife to fork over $120,000.
"I married my wife out of love, but as soon as we had our first daughter, we began having marital issues," he told the Irish Times. "Our daughter was incredibly ugly, to the point where it horrified me."
One with make up, the other no make up....lets face it, make up by a professional could make even me look good at 73...they do it for Barbar Strisaid all the time...
LOL you and your x’s could make a good stand up routine...GG
Lots of ducking and hiding and reloading going on.
It would make a great E&E class, though.

Duh, has Mr. Feng glanced in the mirror lately?
BTW, one third of the people in the World are ugly. For example, look at the guy on your left, and if he looks okay, then look at the guy on your right. If he also looks okay, then WHAT CAN I TELL YOU!?
She needs to sue him for inflicting his genes on her. Sure win.
I hear you. My historical reading is mostly latin and english military and technical stuff from the 1400s to early 1900s.
Lots of logistics lists. Lots of them.
It's in the stack, somewhere.
I don't read any literature from that era outside of Canterbury tales and Bill's plays, and a few poems, and Kipling.

Ya, know, this is something I always wondered about with plastic surgery so commonplace now! It could happen both ways, too.
But, the baby is not to blame and every life is precious regardless of looks. I worked with this woman who was very attractive and we had a fun contest at work where everyone brought in pictures of themselves as babies and we had to guess who was whom. NOBODY matched the baby picture to this woman - and she had not had any plastic surgery. You just never know. I’ve seen incredibly cute and adorable baby pictures of people who are now adults and they ain’t so cute and adorable anymore! Too bad this little girl will grow up without a loving and accepting father - it’s HIS loss.
Didn’t Rodney also say he was so ugly his Mom had to tie a pork chop around his neck to get the dog to play with him?
You’ve heard the expression, “ugly baby, pretty lady”? Some people need to grow into their looks.
Pure poetry.
Kitty Ping? This is not a ping, Slings! ;-)
Whoops! I can’t believe I did that.
Well, maybe if the baby was ugly enough...
That would be some ugly baby! Kittens are cute, though. [smiles] Still love ya!
Awww! They’re both totally cute and precious!
Unless that’s the baby on the left and the kitten on the right. ;-)
Best not to ask.
My lip is zipped.
Italy is known as the "Land of the Beautiful Children." While many Italian adults are drop dead gorgeous, many are not. All of the children are gorgeous, however, and some grow up to be not so good looking. The same is true of many nationalities.
