Myth #5:
We have been “legally separated” in Texas for years.


The concept of “legal separation” is a fabrication in Texas. In some countries just by muttering the words “I divorce you” three times, you are divorced. But in Texas, if you don’t have a divorce decree, then you don’t have the golden ticket. Legal separation does not exist in this state.
