Oh you poor guy. What a doozy you are in. So sorry your dream was shattered. Check on an annulment. You'll need to see if it is allowed in the state you were married in. Hope you were married in Las Vegas. They do divorces VERY easily. If not you can get divorced in Haiti or the D.R. Or see a solicitor there.. I understand that Blazer Mills Solicitors have offices in the UK and US. Might be worth giving them a call. As for the rest of it prayers are with you.

Evil,

You've got to be trolling with a story like this. But in the event that you're not - you're are resident of the UK and you're in the UK, so see a UK lawyer and get a divorce action filed in the UK. Do it fast, before you wife files in her state of residence, so that hopefully she's answering you rather than the other way around.

Cheers, JEff

Get a lawyer and a divorce.
Since a US divorce can be filed when one person is out of the US, I
assume you could get a UK divorce since one of you lives in the UK. You
aren't required to divorce in the country of marriage.

What are you talking about? It doesn't matter if they got married in
Vegas.
To divorce in Vegas requires 6 weeks of residency by one of the people,
as I recall

If not you can get divorced in Haiti or the

Wherever he gets divorced, he needs to make sure he provides legal
notification to his spouse.
I don't know if the UK is going to care about it, but his wife in the US
can have legal alternatives if he fails to take the proper steps to
notify her and he decides at some point to live in the US.

I'd just like to point out that Marilyn Manson is a guy - so if you're wife has turned into him, you have yet another problem on your hands!
