OP your partner needs to see a solicitor, tell her not to panic what he is telling her is likely to be scare tactics.

He didn't ay he didn't either , or the reason for the split (not that it matters why they split , he was probably living a life of chastity we don't know) .

Just to add a lot can depend on the length of the marriage to how assets are divided, the fact children are involved makes it more complicated. Seeing a solicitor is your best bet, call some and see who offers a free first session.

I think that when kids are involved it's not really fair to introduce new adults into their lives without the parents, not the new person, explaining the circumstances.

Frankly a life of chastity for a few years is hardly the worst thing!

People are so quick to jump from relationship to relationship.

OP did not mention anything at all about how long this lady has been seperated from her husband before they started a relationship. Much the same as DUTR you are jumping to conclusions which have little to do with the point of the post.

OP I think you should advise your girlfriend to contact a solicitor first and foremost but I am sure even Citizens Advice would be able to help advise on her position. Other posters are correct in saying that as they are married, she will be entitled to a portion of all marital assets (as he has entitlement to any assets she has) and there is a legal aspect to protect any school age children.

Fairest approach is obviously for the OP's partner to move on from the property and rent somewhere (she cant afford the mortgage in the long term can she pay rent?), that will allow her husband to sell the house and move forward in a situation where he is then paying maintenance. Or is the OP happy for his girlfriends husband to be paying this going forward?

The OP will likely realise soon that if he were to move in with his partner then she would loose many benefits that she would be able to claim as a single parent (credits etc)..

So its likely best for the OP that he gets some kind of idea as to where he feels that this relationship is going.

this thread mirrors a few recent threads - theres the matter of the house (and likely real difficulties her husband may have in paying the mortgage and paying maintenance whilst the OP's girlfriend is living rent free).

then the next matter is how the OP's girlfriend finances would then be affected if they were to live together - the hole that she would have in terms of tax credits if they live together in the longer term.

The Shelter website has a relationship breakdown section which gives an overview of her rights and her ex's obligations. It includes information on occupation orders which some parents seek through court to give them the right to live in the family home until the youngest turns 18.

There is a child support forum on MSE for information on how to get him to meet his child maintenance obligations. There will be information on this on the Direct Gov website.

Has she had a check of her benefit entitlements? The Turn2us online benefit calculator will be of use.

It's little different to posters like you assuming any other way either, we only know what has been posted , and forum experience suggests OP's post only a favourable side of the story.

Quite a while.
Drives me nuts.
Partner seems to be the replacement word for boy/girlfriend in vogue at the moment even if the relationship is only a few months old.

My fiance gets a glare if he uses partner rather than fiancee as we technically don't live together yet.
