I assume she just meant that she and her spouse were fighting all the time because of the money problems. It’s a common thing for couples to bicker about.

It depends. A wife could be responsible for her husband’s debt and vice versa. In some states spouses don’t have to worry about that. Their debt is their own, but in other states, the debt of one spouse is shared by both and both have to pay it back. If there is a house in the picture, then creditors will go after it. Perhaps that is why “she” mentioned divorce. Good luck and God Bless!

Has a lot to do with it, if you’re the one stuck with the bills at the end of the divorce.
