SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH: 'The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City' Season 4 star Meredith Marks seems to have conquered the challenges in her marriage with her husband Seth Marks and is thriving in their relationship.
However, in the latest episode of 'RHOSLC', Meredith shared her marital struggles and revealed why she decided to get a postnuptial agreement 15 years into her marriage.
In the episode, Meredith and Seth recorded their 'Hanging by a Thread' podcast.
During the episode, Meredith recalled Seth being 'very disconnected from' her a decade and a half after their wedding.
Meredith admitted, "I was moving with three children from Chicago to Park City, Utah, where if you were to go get a divorce it is not favorable for women in Utah."
She added, "I was worried that I would love my children and be stuck somewhere that I didn't know and that he would leave me."
However, Meredith further revealed that there was nothing financial in their relationship and it was strictly about custody of their children.
Meanwhile, Meredith elaborated on their marital struggle in the confessional interview, "I don't think Seth remembers how bad things really were. Like, back then I was terrified he was leaving. Like, we were not happy together. It was not good."
Seth Marks claims he was focusing on 'providing financially' rather than 'emotionally'
Meredith Marks' confession about her fear of divorce stunned her husband Seth Marks. In the podcast, Seth asked, "You thought I was going to leave you?"
Seth later admitted that he was focused on providing financially but was not fully available to his family during that period.
