[Citations.] “(2) The sufficiency of the corroborative testimony in a divorce action lies within the sound discretion of the trial court. [Citations.] “(3) When a finding of fact is attacked on the ground that there is no substantial evidence to sustain it, the power of an appellate court begins and ends with the determination of whether there is any substantial evidence, contradicted or uncontradicted, which will support the finding. [Citation.] ””
