A Queensland man took his own life, leaving behind his wife and several family members.

The man and his wife were married for one year but had been in a relationship for three years. Their relationship was rocky and she had left him on at least three occasions, the final time being some two days before he committed suicide. It was suggested that the wife had said she would leave the man to return to her former husband.

The man did not leave a formal will prepared in accordance with the Succession Act.
