My wonderful stepson divorced about 2 years ago and recently remarried. We are so happy for him but I have just read in a newspaper article that it shouldn't be assumed that inherited wealth will not be taken into account in a divorce settlement. When both DH and I have both gone, he could come into a considerable sum, if we haven't spent it all and my stomach turned at the thought that his ex would get 1 penny. Our DGC will get a good percentage. Has anyone ever experienced this situation? Hopefully we'll be around for a good few years yet, in our very early 70s and still got lots of adventures ahead. Can anyone put my mind at ease?
