"If it was unreasonable she shouldn't have signed it."

But how else could she lure him into a marriage under false pretenses? She clearly had no intention of honoring the contract, as proven by her subsequent court action against him.

To: Bonaparte

NOT being a lawyer, here is my take:

This is the point.

If the prenup were sprung upon the blushing bride 2 days before the wedding, the entire contract would have been thrown out.

That was not the case.

It is evident discussions went on beforehand about this.

Partners desiring a prenup should, by simple reflex action alone, cause the other party to take a much closer second look at what they're considering spending, if not the rest of their lives, at least a subtantial portion of it.

You always have the option of saying "No". If she agreed and signed with the intention of not fulfilling the terms of the contract, that is fraud and misrepresentation, which are grounds for annullment.

If the marriage is annulled, in the eyes of the law the marriage never existed.

If the marriage never existed, where is the case?

Like I say, I'm not a lawyer (hey, some of my best friends...awww, never mind). But that's just how I see it.

CA....
