Marriage is an economy of scale. And divorce means confronting harsh realities about the cost of being solo.

Ileana Garcia and her husband lived in a five-bedroom brick colonial home with a dining-room table that could seat a dozen people.

Just before her divorce was finalized in 2023, she downsized from her home of more than two decades in suburban New York to a nearby apartment. She still likes having people over, but at her 55th birthday party recently, everyone had to crowd around her kitchen island.

“There wasn’t enough room for everyone to sit,” said Garcia, who works in software sales. “That part sucked.”

The toughest part: Her rent is $5,000 a month. That is even more than the mortgage payments she and her husband paid with a combined income that was twice what she earns now.

Garcia knows she is fortunate financially. She earns about $250,000 a year—around what she was making when she was married. But without her ex-husband’s salary, it feels like she took a huge pay cut.

For others, the lifestyle adjustment after divorce is more extreme.

Today the Daily Mail has published the findings of my two-year investigation "The Brass Pass" into the hidden epidemic of domestic abuse suffered by military wives and girlfriends.
A dossier of 52 cases reveals high-ranking Army husbands using brutal battlefield techniques: chokeholds, restraints, combat weapons, and even IED threats against the women they are supposed to protect.
The MoD has failed them.
Today the Daily Mail has published the investigation.

This isn’t random violence. It’s a pattern. A culture of violence that stretches from the battlefield to the bedroom.
Top brass write glowing character references that sway family courts. The Royal Military Police and welfare services close ranks to “protect our boys”.
Loyalty to the regiment is being placed above the law and basic human decency.

I’ve heard the same stories over and over: women strangled until they have strokes, pets maimed as warnings, military-grade tracking used to stalk them.
One survivor told me: “Rather than protecting the wives, they just go, ‘How can we cover this up?’”
This is a scandal of unprecedented scale — and it’s systemic.

Failed by the MoD: The wives tortured by Army husbands using brutal battlefield techniques
