One married woman is torn between a rock and a hard place and wants people who chance on her dilemma to help her make a decision she would not regret .
In a post that reads :
“My husband recently inherited a big sum of money when his father passed away. His father left 75% of his estate to my husband, which is worth around $3 million.
My husband has been having an affair for some time now and I will confront him about it soon and, after that, I intend to divorce him.
What rights do I have to his inheritance? We have five children together and I went through a lot with him for many years and I want to punish him for going behind my back and having an affair.
I know I’m a bitter and scorned wife, but what are my rights with his inheritance “?
Any advise to this scorned lady?
first of all i’m really sorry for what your husband is making you go through. my advice is to first wait for your husband to lawfully fully inherit his entire portion. in other words wait till he has his name on the papers. i don’t know where you live if Ghana or elsewhere but in most parts of Europe (where i live) especially when you have minor kids, if you were to get a divorce, the man is obligated to give you EVERYTHING you need to live a life EQUAL to how you were living before the divorce. and if you chose to sign for the “sharing of properties” (instead of “division of properties”) when you got married then you will also have right to 50% of the properties you both OWN (reason why i said to first wait till he has his name on the documents).
but then again i also have to tell you that there is also a slight possibility that maybe your man is willing to change his ways and live with you faultlessly once you tell him your feeling. so it’s all up to you.
good luck with it
