Hmmmmm I wouldn't castigate those that are vehemently against court marriage. Lord Justice Thorpe said this was justified as Mr Murphy had greater future earning potential. ^ ^ ^ Dafuq is that? ![]() 14 Likes 1 Share |

I've a problem with the term 'husband's money' If they were married it belonged to both of them. But as is pointed out in the story. The judge was obviously biased towards the woman and against the man. 65-35 ke? What happened to 50-50? Is it because he allegedly wasted 2million of the family money before it could be shared? 5 Likes |

cococandy:You have answered yourself. It would not be 50/50 if he was allowed to just waste $2million and still get 50% of what is left. |

I have always said one thing: the very day women will be made to part with their money in an event of divorce, is the day i will take court marriage seriously. If Linda Ikeji will have to be the one who would lose out financially in an event of a divorce (if she doesn't have a problem with divorce and sees it as an option), then i would take court wedding seriously. 6 Likes |

cococandy: why exactly do i have the feeling you don't really feel any sympathy for the man? And no, it is Husband's money. Unless the lady contributed to it and in that case, they will be able to share it fairly. 6 Likes |

[I don't think I believe that "the money belongs to the both of them" crap... in my world, no1 needs to be "settled" in a divorce. Unless the marriage was not mutual or he insisted you should not work. Maybe there's a good reason that I'm naive about but I'm just imagining myself parting with 50% of my hard earned money... sheesh....] 2018... Got the temptation to delete this post coz people are still liking it... I'd just add that I've had a slight change of mind since I first posted this probably due to exposure to information haha... 14 Likes 2 Shares |

craziebone: Read up about Madonna and Halle Berry and their ex-husband. Also read up about mani money. Yes women are parting with their money. The richer person in the marriage irrespective of the gender usually parts with their money. 8 Likes |

I think 65/35% was very unfair to the man. I believe the couples assets while married (not before or after) should be shared 50/50 irrespective of gender. 1 Like |

babygirlfl:0 Reminds me of one episode in 'Suits which was about louis litt's sister and her soon to be ex-husband, he was demanding their assets be shared equally just because he had to forfeit going to medical school, even though he lied about the medical school ish.and for that reason was only entitled to 20% as stated in the pre-nup, Litts sister was mad because she couldn't bare the thought of him taking 50% of all she had worked for. My point is, it's not as easy as it sounds to lose half of you sweat to someone just because you are married to them. |

Adaeze003: Well said! Even if he insisted his wife should not work, she should be compensated paid on her earning potential, not some rubbish 50/50. It should only be 50/50 if his worth cannot fully compensate. In such a case, 50/50 should be the maximum the court should split it. 2 Likes |

Sagamite: Marriage is a union of two people and whatever they own while married (not before or after) should belong to both as it is marital property. I think it is only fair that it is divided equally when they separate. 4 Likes |

babygirlfl: Sorry, sweetheart. If your explanation is "marriage is a union", I am afraid that is very lame. Marriage is a mere announcement, sometimes accompanied by a piece of certificate and registration with the local government/authorities, not a right or agreement to someoneelse's money because you call it a "union". If the 2 people getting married want to agree that it means a right to each other's money, by all means, they should go ahead but that should not be the case by law/force. What she works for belongs to her, what he works for belongs to him, should be the starting point of the law. If a couple wants that to be different, they can both agree it. 10 Likes 1 Share |

Sagamite: I can understand where you are coming from. At least that is what marriage has been reduced to and I know you to be someone that says something just as it is. Which is one thing I respect about you. However I believe there is more to marriage that certificate and announcement. It's not as simple as what she works for belongs to her, what he works for belongs to him because sometimes a spouse can sacrifice things they would not normally sacrifice. For example, one might have a reduced earning for a while because of the children. One might have to leave a job to relocate to where the other partner resides and so many other things. It is sad that some people have taken advantage of an otherwise good law. What I think should be done is to look for a way to stop these greedy people. 5 Likes |
