In March, 1926, Mrs Turner secured a judicial separation from Turner. She was given the custody of two of their three sons and was granted permanent alimony of £4/5/- a week. Turner being given the right to apply for a reduction as each child attained the age of 16. The parties were subsequently divorced, but the provisions of the decree for permanent alimony were renewed.
