So he's hiding his assets? That's shady as fuck.
Not only that, she can just get his money from his mom or directly garnished from his pay. If he's hiding assets to dodge paying support, he's a piece of shit
Or maybe people aren't owed money for having been in a relationship with someone.
It depends on a lot actually. If a couple decides that one will be stay at home, and then later split up, since being a stay at home parent doesn't get you a tax receipt, you're fucked. So now you're out on your own with a giant resume gap and a lot of time of missed opportunities and sacrifices, while your ex spouse jets off with all the family income and advancement. Would you as the stay at home dad think that's fair? Cause I think that parent is owed a damn lot. I say this as the one who brings home all the money in my household, my stay at home spouse does more and is more valuable to this family than I ever hope to be, she's just straight up better than me, so if we ever split, damn right I'll take care of her and feel she's entitled to that, especially as the mother to my children, it's my duty to make sure she's ok even without me.
p.s: this footballer's wife divorced him after he was caught in Paris with sexually abusing an underage girl
I'll concede, in specific circumstances, it may be warranted, but it is assumed to be the default currently. Far too often, the courts are used as a cudgel by a disgruntled former spouse who just wants to punch their former partner in the wallet. My father was such a disgruntled person. He was even engaged for the better part of a decade, refusing to marry until the alimony ran out. He was not a stay at home spouse, but due to his own choices, he made less than my mother. The default position should be that neither party is owed anything unless proven otherwise by specific evidence.
Edit: ihad to look these two up. A 31 year old woman courted a 19 year old up and coming footballer and married them. Guess it takes a predator to know one. Even if it left her destitute (it wouldn't), she doesn't deserve a cent.
