A friend of me got married 6 years ago, the house he bought was on his name before getting married.
After trying hard for a baby it never happend, even with ivf. She got a brain tumor and was ill for a while but she is find now.
Their sex life completely stopped for 2 years and they separate.
She got a part time job and get some benefit due to her illness.
When she used to live with him she never payed a single bill or food.
He would like to divorce and be free again but is afraid to lose half his house , he offer to give her £100K if they divorse and he will keep his house, she agree and said she wasn't after is money or house.
But now she want more and he doesn't know what to do, anyone with advices or experiences:confused:

    It is perhaps not that simple. They should both seek a good solicitor. All assests are taken into consideration including pensions. Bossyboots may reply to your posts. She is a solicitor and always makes some good and accurate observations.
