Incorrect divorce date and second wife's name.[edit]
The current article states that Johan van Zyl Steyn and Jean Pollard were married in 1958, yet divorced in 1959, only a year later, despite having had four children. This is of course impossible. for example, one of their children, Karen, was born on 20 October 1970. This information is from Karen's Wikipedia page, as she is a High Court Judge in the UK. The divorce date has to be before 1977, when Johan married his second wife, but cannot be 1959. Also in this Wikipedia article the second wife's name is given as Susan Heard (née Lewis), yet in the British papers that featured his obituary she is called Susan Leonore Lewis. Where does the "Heard" part come from? Did she remarry after Johan's death? 165.255.111.109 (talk) 23:26, 17 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
