STBXH left for another woman. He pays maintenance for the children but left me on a tiny salary struggling to pay the mortgage every month. Mortgage was based on his salary as he is a high earner. Absolutely distraught.

Did you get a solicitor involved? That should all have been sorted before the divorce.

Maybe you simply can't afford to keep the house on your own? I know it's hard, but is there property nearby which you could afford, if you got a deposit from the house you're in now?

Surely his name is still on the mortgage?
Get a solicitors advice, but let STBXH know that you cannot afford the mortgage repayments and he needs to consider what effect it will have on him if you default.
