In Episode 3 of Debunking Divorce Myths with Gilson Gray, we tackle one of the most common misconceptions in divorce: that poor behaviour during the marriage will automatically lead to a better financial outcome.
If your ex has been unfaithful, dishonest, or difficult, it can feel only fair that this should be reflected in the division of assets. But the reality of how finances are decided in England and Wales is often very different.
🌱 In this episode, I’m joined by Sharan Bhinder-Dhonsi, Legal Director in Gilson Gray’s family law team, to explore where this myth comes from and what the law actually says about conduct in divorce.
✨ In this episode, we cover:
• What no-fault divorce really means in practice
• Why conduct usually has little or no impact on financial outcomes ⚖️
• The limited circumstances where behaviour may be taken into account
• The difference between moral blame and legal relevance • How allegations of abuse are treated differently in children matters 👶
• Why focusing on “proving fault” can backfire emotionally and financially This is an essential conversation if you want to understand how divorce really works and avoid common misconceptions that can lead to unnecessary conflict. 🎧
Watch now to gain clarity and approach your divorce with a more informed perspective.
