Benidorm legend fumes he's forced to sell £800K Spanish home thanks to 'gold digger'
Derren Litten, creator of the sitcom 'Benidorm', is selling his Spanish home after his divorce from actor Jake Canuso, whom he accuses of being a 'gold digger'.
Derren Litten, the renowned creator of the popular sitcom 'Benidorm', has announced that he is being compelled to sell his Spanish home, where he is said to have written the series, due to his recent divorce from fellow actor Jake Canuso. Litten expressed his frustration over the situation, attributing the necessity of the sale to what he describes as a 'shameless, career gold digger.' The sale comes after a decade of living in the house located in Costa Blanca North, Alicante.
In a recent social media post, the 55-year-old disclosed his emotional connection to the property, saying he would love to keep it but feels he has no other choice given the circumstances of his split with Canuso, who is 56. The couple's separation in 2022 seems to have stirred significant personal turmoil for Litten, as he publicly grapples with the impact of their relationship's end, and the financial implications tied to it.
The announcement of the house being up for sale not only marks a personal loss for Litten, who holds fond memories associated with the home, but it also serves to highlight broader themes of relationship breakdowns and financial struggles that often accompany them. His outspoken comments, along with his turbulent situation, underscore the challenges faced by individuals in high-profile relationships when it comes to financial separation and property disputes.
