Transfer of debts

I am about to get married. Would my wife be liable at all for any of my unsecured debts?.

  • Boring moment - does you wife to be know about your debts, I did not about my husband of 5 months and they extended to £7000!!! and I have spent a long time sorting it out, I was debt free prior to our wedding in October!!!!

    Just be honest, and also you are trying to sort it, so that is a big positive.

    Congrats by the way, and dont let anyone tell you that weddings have to be expensive - they dont!
