LEE COVINGTON appeared on Howard Stern, Oprah and hundreds of other shows before deciding life was too short to be harassed by angry ex-wives 24 hours a day. To the disappointment of many desperate men, she stopped publishing her wildly popular divorce book and retreated to an undisclosed secret location.
But Splitsville Press recently convinced Ms. Covington to write a revised and expanded 2013 edition of How to Dump Your Wife, and suffering men everywhere are rejoicing! (Best of all, the new Kindle version now offers a discreet method for readers to obtain this critical information.)
Ms. Covington offers her practical, hardcore and hilarious advice to men seeking freedom from the slavery of bad marriages and justice in our crooked divorce courts.

AN INTERVIEW WITH LEE COVINGTON, Author of HOW TO DUMP YOUR WIFE
Q: Why did you write this book?
A: I fell in love with a man who was going through a divorce from hell with an ex-wife who had decided to destroy him. And the courts were going right along with her. I wanted to give some practical advice to other guys so they could avoid going through that.
Q: What kind of wife might your readers need to dump?
A: There are three types of wives I deal with in the book. Wife One is a sweetheart of a woman who dotes on her husband and wants to stay married. Wife Two, frankly, is a bitch. She is shrill, abusive and totally draining. Wife Three is a self-absorbed, self-righteous career woman, with lots of powerful friends and her own agenda.
Q: Is this book appropriate for every man seeking a divorce?
A: No. Many times I say in the book that there are a lot of good wives out there, and people make deals and shake hands and walk away from each other. Is a difficult divorce worth it? You only have to ask yourself, "Do I deserve happiness, or is my life going to be spent in a prison cell with no parole?"
Q: Why has How to Dump Your Wife been so difficult to find?
A: A lot of booksellers wouldn't carry it. Here I was, doing Oprah and Howard Stern and about 250 other T.V. and radio shows, and people were still trying to censor this information. When I moved on to a career in technology and allowed it to go out of print there was still enormous demand for the book. On the web people were selling copies for $250 dollars. When they re-play my 33-minute interview with Howard Stern on "Best of Stern" demand skyrockets. Say what you will about Amazon but the eBook version of this has been a godsend for men looking for a discreet way to get this advice.

SHE EVEN TOOK THE DOG
My opinion is people need to read How to Dump Your Wife... BEFORE they get married.
Every guy goes into marriage thinking that it will last forever, that his wife will never cheat on him, that nothing will change after the marriage. The women are always thinking a few steps ahead of the men on this stuff. They end up screwing the guys out of money and their kids.
I know one guy whose wife is a crazy Panamanian lady who screams and throws shit at him and routinely kicks him out of the house. This guy makes a ton of money in sales and should be having a great life. But she has him by the balls with the kids and finances (they live in New Jersey where you REALLY get screwed in a divorce). He finally just decided that there just isn't any way out. He figures the financial and emotional pain of the divorce would be even greater than the hell he goes through by staying in the marriage. I disagree but it's his call.
Last time I talked to him a couple of months ago he was sleeping on the couch at his office because his wife kicked him out of the house again. And he's a good guy - doesn't cheat, isn't an alcoholic, works his ass off, and is a great and devoted husband and father. She has him brainwashed into thinking that he is a selfish lout. This dude paid his way through college as a male stripper and could hook up with all the women he wants. Now his self confidence is entirely destroyed and she probably even makes him sit down to pee.
Another good friend of mine who lives in California spent two years going through the divorce grinder with his wife. He got totally raped in the divorce, devastated financially, and is stuck paying alimony for years. Some asshole judge even ordered that he has to also pay for her to go back to college. Plus his kids live with her now and she does everything she can to limit his contact with them. Again, this is a great guy. She just decided she wasn't happy anymore and wanted a divorce.
One of my neighbors drained her husband's bank account of almost $100K then filed for divorce that afternoon. Then she screwed her divorce lawyer. (I hear from my lawyer brother that this is quite common with his friends who practice family law.)
I have a very low opinion of marriage because almost everyone I know has been through a divorce. It's funny because I was raised Catholic, I don't believe in divorce, and my parents have been married for coming up on 50 years and say they've never been more in love than they are now.
But times have changed, the women's rights movement ruined the family structure of America. The courts are severely biased against the rights of fathers in this country. Women take your money, take your kids, take your house and boat and truck, take your dog, and then are free to jump in bed with your best friend and just keep screwing you over after the divorce.
If you don't pay child support then you go to jail, but if they decide not to let you talk to your kids or see them then that's just tough shit for you. Good luck getting a sheriff to come to her door and enforce a court order to let you have every other weekend with your kid.
Ask just about any guy who has been through a divorce what they think of marriage and you'll probably get a similar rant. Divorce has almost no negative consequences for wives, but can destroy the finances, health, and family relationships for husbands.
On the other hand, I wouldn't give up my kids for all the money in the world!

NOW THE KIDS WON'T TALK TO ME
Nobody's perfect. Not my wife and not me. She lied about a lot of stuff having to do with our business at the time and she got us deep into debt. When we were having serious problems in our marriage I did have an affair. I'm not saying we're even but give me a break. I paid for it a thousand times.
Then she gained a lot of weight, basically to punish me. She used to have pretty long hair and she chopped that off also. No more make-up either. To be honest, she just looked like a big fat guy. I'm sorry to say it because she's the mother of my kids but I was embarrassed to be seen with her.
During the divorce she really turned the kids against me. She showed them the video of me together with this lady and some other things that were really intimate and not appropriate for my kids to see. Maybe when they get to be a little older and have some more life experiences they will understand that I'm just a human being.
Right now it's so painful to see them because they just clam up and treat me like I'm the enemy. They feel like they are betraying their Mom if they treat me like their Dad again. If you want an example of child abuse and causing permanent harm to young kids, look no further.
