 When the fashion for ballroom dancing declined, replaced by new forms of dance, the Veloz and Yolanda schools began to close. The marriage broke up in the mid-1950s. In 1956 Yolanda sued Veloz for maintenance, accusing him of infidelity with Jean Davi, his dancing partner. The suit was dismissed the next year. In 1962 Veloz, now aged sixty, sued for divorce on the basis of extreme cruelty by his wife. Yolanda, aged fifty, was to have custody of their minor children. Their children were Nicholas, 21; Anthony, 18; Yolanda, 16 and Guy, 12. Frank later married his former dance partner, Jean, twenty years his younger.
