USA debt and UK chasing?

I am after any advice is anyone has been in this situation.
As with most, I have had a reduced income which means after paying normal bills (Mortgage, water bill etc tec) I have around £50 left per month (not including when bank charges come in!)
We own outright two weeks timeshre in the USA. the yearly maintenance for these weeks is roughly $1,800 and I have not been able to pay this. Subsequentlky they are threatening to take me to court for non payment of the maintenace fee in the USA, take over the weeks and then charge me for any costs still outstanding over the price they sell the timeshare for.
If they do this, can they chase me through the UK courts for the outstanding sums?
Thanks in advance
