Hello, my ex wife moved out of the Marital home and moved in with her new partner whom she has a baby with, she moved my 3 children with her and changed their schools, the house is on the market and she is entitled to half when it sells, althought the house is empty atm the mortgage is only in my name and so are the deeds, she messaged me today saying she might move back into the house. Can I stop her as she has left and it is in my name, I just dont know what to do? please could someone advise me.
Thanks Richard.
Hi Rich,
As the house is solely in your name then no as far as I know she has no legal right to be able to move back in, if it were in joint names then yes she could as she would have equal rights to you over it.
What are the reasons for her to want to move back in?

I dont think things are going too well with her new partner, as it is his house she has moved into.
I sort of guessed that may be the answer.
I guess my only concern would be if she were to be left homeless with the children.

I'd have a word with the Citizens Advice Bureau asap just to check - if the divorce hasn't gone through, then she might still have a right to go back. Is there a reason why you aren't living in it at the moment?
