I am wondering if someone knows the answer. Please let me know. I have 2 sons from 2 marriages and I still live with my second wife and our son. Can I pay child maintenance to my wife? I have been paying CM to my ex for a few years however, I beleive that my second son does not get as much as my first. I have made calculations that prove this, this is why I want to start paying for my current wife. Please advise.

    You can give your wife whatever you want... are you hoping that it will be considered a formal expense for the calculation of anything because that would be a different question.
