Abby Clancy and Peter Crouch have just signed there pre-nup which I know is all about protecting themselves should it all go pear shaped but I have to say it does seem to take the romance out of the reasons for getting married. Its like saying I love you and want to spend the rest of my life with you, but if I change my mind about that.....
I just don't know!! Has anyone been in this situatuion? A friend of mine told her (fairly) wealthy fiance the engagement would be off if he insisted on a pre-nup. They're still engaged but not married yet even though he originally wanted to be married within the same year (this was over 3 years ago).
I don't blame Abby Clancy for getting a pre-nup, considering that Peter Crouch was a very naughty boy recently - I think pre-nups can be about protecting both parties as they can be about protecting a richer one.
I don't know if I'd get one myself - I've never been in that situation so I don't think I can judge too well. I'm not sure it would bother me, if I thought the relationship would be successful, but I don't know if it's the kind of thing that might start to prey on someone's mind after a while.
It's a really weird thing, a pre-nup. It's like saying "I love you and trust you enough to commit to you for the rest of my life, but... just in case."
I'd hate to think I needed one, and it's a shame to think it's part of people pre-marital agreements.
It's a sad but true part of some marriages I suppose.
I'm lucky enough to have nothing worth taking 1/2 of... and neither's he!
I think is all wrong, as if you do love that person to the extent that you want to marry them & spend the rest of your life together, then you dont need this.
If my hubby said that he wanted me to sign a pre-nup b4 we married then i would not have married him(not that we needed one as hes not super rich or owt lol), for the sole reason of that he was not im my own opinion 100% committed to our relationship & that he was thinking that somewhere down the line we might split up.
I have my own strong views about marriage & relationships & in some cases nowadays feel ppl get married for all the wrong reasons weather they be famous or not!
