Thanks for this as I'm from the UK and one of my dire told me that because I'm not legally separated from STBXH, if something happens to me he gets every thing. I earn more than him, have a better pension and few assessts that were given to me by my parents. My concern is more if I die he gets everything, so him and OW will be well off financially and as I have a step daughter she'll be able to get more. I'm more concerned that if I die my kids won't get their fair share, as STBXH could use the sale of my house to entertain OW and his first daughter would be entitled to her mother's side, her father's share and if I die and STBXH is still my next of keen, she will get some inheritance that should have gone to my kids.

As a male, would you be offended if I were to go for a deed of separation ( which is not D), just to protect myself and my kids financially? I know he is still with OW and unfortunate I can't trust him.
