SG Divorcee Lost 3 Years Waiting for Her Ex to Sell the House. What Happened Next…

A court order said the house must be sold within six months. But for this SG divorcee, the nightmare dragged on… for 3 years.

In this episode of Grounds for Divorce, Kenneth and Kathleen reveal one of the most extreme property battles they've ever handled: a case where a woman spent years trying to leave behind a house, while her ex-husband refused to cooperate, blocked viewings, changed padlocks, and even made police reports to stall the sale.

They also share heartbreaking cases of women who signed divorce papers without understanding their rights, families who thought selling their home would give them a fresh start but ended up homeless, and why lack of information is one of the biggest traps in Singapore divorces.
If you or someone you know is going through a divorce in Singapore, this conversation will give you clarity, direction, and real stories from the ground.
