Mr Justice Wood said in her will she "made it clear" that she wanted her son and daughter to "have little or nothing to do with their father". She had written that it would be "extremely detrimental to their lives" if they returned to their father, and said she wanted a friend or a relative in England to bring them up. The father said they should return to him under the terms of the international Hague Convention.
He said they had been born and had grown up in Australia and it was their habitual residence, and he had never consented to them moving to England to live. The judge agreed and said the man had been misled by his ex-wife and the children had been wrongfully retained by her. Neither child objected to returning to their father in Australia, he added. "The children left Australia in July 2013 for a holiday," the judge said. "They did not say goodbye to their friends, school or neighbors. They left many favored objects behind them, fully intending to return."
