Thinking of divorce - splitting assets

Have NC as H knows my old name.

I have been with H 4.5 years married for 2 with a 2 year old. Both work full time and share care.

The house is under joint ownership although he owned about 1/3 before we bought out his ex (about £50k) however house was bought out from her as us being joint owners.

I earn slightly less salary wise however I have less outgoings and potential to do overtime and as a result bring in more money. He keeps about £600 back and all money put into joint accout, joint savings etc. He puts in £1k a month I put in £1.7k. We have been doing this since we were married/ had dc.

We now own £100k equity.

I also have a separate £10k isa that was built up before we married.

Would all assets be split 50/50? We have always said that if we split then all money and house would be 50/50 which I am fine with. My concern is he may say he put more into house and that should be his but yet I put more into savings and that would be considered marital asset?

All bills are £2k a month so only savings is thr extra £700.

I also went part time for 8 months to factor in childcare but am full time now.
