Henry and Whitney married in 2021 in California. Five days b…
Henry аnd Whitney mаrried in 2021 in Cаlifоrnia. Five days befоre their wedding, Henry gave Whitney an agreement that stated “any incоme earned by either spouse during marriage would remain their separate property,” the agreement further included that each party waive any rights to spousal support in the event of divorce. Henry told her that if she didn’t sign it the wedding was “off.” Whitney didn’t want to sign the agreement but was worried about the embarrassment of telling her friends and family that they weren’t getting married. Whitney signed the agreement that day. Henry wrote the agreement himself, neither party had representation. In 2022, Henry won $1.2 million in the state lottery using a ticket he bought with his “personal allowance” money, which came from his earnings. He opened a new savings account solely in his name and deposited the lottery winnings. Using a portion of these funds, he bought a house in Washington, taking the title solely in his name. Later in 2022, Henry purchased a rare vintage diamond necklace for $40,000 using funds from the savings account. He gave it to Whitney on their anniversary, saying, “This is for you—something special to wear.” Whitney thanked him and wore the necklace regularly. In 2023, Henry gave Whitney a will he had prepared. Included in the will was a statement that the vintage diamond necklace was Henry’s separate property and no longer community property. Wendy signed the will without reading it. In December 2024, Henry sold the Washington house to his brother James without Whitney’s knowledge. In February 2025, Whitney found out about the sale of the house. She immediately filed for divorce. At the time of the divorce, Henry’s savings account, which contained only his lottery winnings, had a remaining balance of $500,000. No other funds had been deposited into the account. What are Henry and Whitney’s respective rights and liabilities regarding: Henry’s savings account? Washington house? The Vintage Diamond? Answer according to California law.
