Lynthia Calliste delays Grenada deportation citing husband's heat aversion

Lynthia Calliste, a Grenadian national, is fighting her deportation from the UK by claiming it would separate her from her husband, Konstantins Vinakovs, a Latvian with permanent residency. Calliste argues that her husband would struggle with the Caribbean cuisine and the heat in Grenada, which she claims violates their right to family life under Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights. Although her claims were initially dismissed by a first-tier immigration tribunal, she has appealed to a higher court and is allowed to remain in the UK during the process. The tribunal found no evidence supporting her husband's inability to handle the climate or food, noting that he regularly consumes Caribbean dishes. Despite the Home Office suggesting Vinakovs could join her in Grenada, Calliste contends that this would cause significant hassle for their family. The Home Office is reportedly preparing for her deportation, pending the outcome of her appeal.
