Wes Brown has been declared bankrupt at the High Court just over a year after his secret divorce from reality TV series star Leanne Wassel.

Former England and Manchester United defender Wes Brown has been declared bankrupt at the High Court.

On February 27, the tax authority of the UK government, Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs (HMRC) filed a bankruptcy petition against Brown, who reportedly earned £50,000-a-week during his playing days at Old Trafford.

The Details as Wes Brown is declared bankrupt

According to a report from the Daily Mail on Thursday, April 20, a petition filed against the 43-year-old former footballer was rubber-stamped at the High Court on April 12 and listed on The Gazette, the official public record.

This comes just after over a year Brown secretly divorced his wife Leanne, 46, who appeared in the reality TV show Real Housewives of Cheshire.

They married in 2009 and had three daughters together.

Wes reportedly moved out of the home he shared with Leanne and their children Halle, Lilia, and Lola.

'Wes and Leanne split before Christmas [2021]. There were no third parties involved; it is just a sad fact that their marriage has run its course.

'Leanne has flourished in single life and has removed her wedding ring. She has told people she feels free and is working hard on her businesses and flourishing as an independent woman. ‘ a source told The Sun at the time.

The source added the former couple are doing their best to co-parent their children and live separate lives.

Wesley Michael Brown is a 43-year-old English former professional footballer who played as a defender.

Brown began his career with Manchester United, joining the club's academy at the age of 12 in 1992.

After turning professional in 1996, he made his senior debut in 1998 and became a semi regular first team player during the 1998–99 season, when the club won the Treble.

After a year-long hiatus due to injury, Brown became a regular fixture in the first team from 2000 onwards.

Over the next eight years, he won numerous honours, including four more Premier League titles, an FA Cup, a League Cup and another Champions League.

Former United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has stated that Brown is "without question the best natural defender this club has had for years".

After 15 years with Manchester United, Brown was allowed to leave for Sunderland.


Brown earned his first England cap in 1999 and was selected to play at the 2002 World Cup.

He scored his first international goal in 2008 against the Czech Republic, and later announced his retirement from international football on 8 August 2010, just a day after being recalled to the England squad by then-Three Lions coach Fabio Capello.

Brown is expected to feature in the Manchester Remembers charity football match for victims of the 2017 Manchester Arena bombing on May 7.

He will play alongside former United team-mate Nicky Butt and Trevor Sinclair in the game at Oldham's Boundary Park, with boxing legend Ricky Hatton and comedian Jason Manford set to feature in the celebrities team they are facing.

We used to call him deaf and dumb player back then. I haven't seen where this guy opened his mouth to talk..... Even with his teammates.

Why their wife age always above that of the husband? Like Hakim's wife, I think that is cheating to the men😗

After watching a lot of suits, I think this is a ploy to get the jury and her lawyer off him.
