    What makes you so sure of this?

    Because it's the most basic legal standing of the marriage contract.

    You SHOULD have done a prenup before marriage. Too late now your only other option now is to silence him lol

    Living together for 4 years, married for just over a year. Again we are not talking about divorce.

    This changes things slightly. Now would be a really good time to try to draw up a post-nup agreement as you've only been married for a year and you could protect your assets.

    AIUI, the years spent living together would be taken into account so this probably wouldn't be considered a short marriage.

    I did not think they were agreeing with her as they thought they should have both properties in joint names or have one each.

    So living together now counts as a marriage?

    Ye like I say, to some degree. The OP is not aware of things really.


    - makes me wonder about her tenants and if she's up to date with LL responsibilities?

    I didn't know that they took these into account, Mojisola. In any event, I can see the rest of this marriage being fairly short lived, particularly when the OP realises that she does indeed have to share everything with her DH. I rather suspect that the story of the relationship itself between her, her DH and the children would be very enlightening.

    If you marry at some stage, then yes.


    Living together for 10 years, married for 1 - not a short marriage.


    Living together for 6 months, married for 6 months - Short marriage
