Marital home

[Captain1]

My ex and I separated two years ago and she moved out in March. I currently rent her a flat until we can sell the main home.

my new girlfriend has had a problem with her landlady and I’ve said she can stay with me for a little while until she gets back on her feet.

Now my ex has gone mad saying it’s her house and how dare I etc etc. She said she’s spoken to a solicitor and I have no rights etc.

she has no boundaries and I know she comes into my(our) home when I’m not there and tonight she messaged me to say I have 3 weeks to get her out (the girlfriend), or she’s moving back in?

am I missing something here?

Another adult occupier of a property can cause difficulties. They can develop beneficial interests in the property or claim a right of occupation; mortgage companies normally require them to sign an occupiers consent form that waives these rights and agree to move out when the property is sold.

However, I doubt this is your ex's concern. She's probably just pissed off you moved someone into her property without her consent. I'm sure you would feel the same way if she moved someone into the flat you are paying for.

She’s right, it is her house. You should have asked.

She's right, you should have asked, its also now many months later, are you closer to selling?

I kept my former marital home for over 3 years, for the first year I lived there then I moved away and exh lived there, I would tell him if I was coming and staying out of courtesy but it remained mine so he certainly didn't move a woman in (I'm sure one of his string of girlfriends stayed sometimes, that's different)

why are you paying for her flat
is the house sale progressing
have you started/agreed divorce and financial settlement ?

I defo don’t think you should be moving your girlfriend into fmh - even less so without agreement from ex

Ok thanks, guess I just didn’t see a problem with it.

Im living there with the grown kids. Just thought if it was the other way round I wouldn’t give a monkeys.

it’s only for a few weeks until she can find a new place as I’m aware it could potentially cause issues with my divorce.

Adult children actually create the same occupier problem so probably isn't that then.

TBH, I would say fine move back in.

Whilst it is her home, it’s yours as well so you can move in anyone. Not saying it was the best idea and you should have run it past her. But her response is OTT.

Adults gotta adult.
