Yep, and now I'd be offering ZERO if I were him.
I know there are lots of laws and stuff, and things to sign, but the act of all the paperwork before the ceremony, and completing the ceremony should show intention of both to be married. The mom seems like a raging B. Without a will stating mom should get half of an estate, it should go to the husband. All of it.
MIL is entitled to zip. Turning down (I assume) half of deceased daughter's estate recovery is dumbest move of all time. She must be a real piece of work. I wonder if MIL has equally stupid lawyer advising her.
Husband needs to watch out for the Adelson Whack.

DUI suspect in wedding crash that killed bride looks forward to 'best life' despite looming trial: recordings
A South Carolina woman facing charges for a deadly DUI crash that killed a bride and seriously wounded her groom and two other relatives told her sister that "everything is going to work out" as she hopes to get back on track to be living her "best life," according to jailhouse phone calls.
Charleston deputies arrested Jamie Komoroski in April 2023 after she allegedly slammed her Toyota Camry into a golf cart carrying members of the bridal party after a wedding reception. Nearly a year later, she has been freed on bond.
In the golf cart were newlyweds Aric Hutchinson and Samantha Miller, 34, the bride's brother Benjamin Garrett and a juvenile relative. The crash killed Miller and left the others with severe injuries, some of them with permanent effects.
"Bad s--- is going to happen," Komoroski told her sister, Kelsi Komoroski, in jailhouse recordings obtained by the New York Post after Komoroski posted $150,000 bail last week. "It’s how you handle it. It’s important to try and remember the universe is going to keep on keeping on, and what’s meant to be will be."
A wrongful death lawsuit filed by the surviving victims alleges the 26-year-old New Jersey native was triple the legal limit, with a blood-alcohol content of .261, on the night of the crash in Charleston, South Carolina.

After drinking for hours in at least four bars, she allegedly got behind the wheel "in her nearly unconscious state," made a wrong turn in the opposite direction of her home and rear-ended a golf cart "in the stupor of a drunken haze" while traveling more than 65 mph in a 25 mph zone.
But despite the tragedy, she told her sister that time will heal her wounds, according to the recordings.
"Two years down the road, you’re living your best life, and you’re so happy, and it’s OK," she said. "You’re fine."
In court filings, Komoroski's defense attorneys have argued that she struggled for years with alcohol, depression and anxiety.
She made no reference to the victims in any of her jailhouse calls, according to the Post report.
But she did "sob" to her mother that she's "not a bad person."
"I just want to tell everyone that I never wanted any of this," she reportedly said, adding she was grateful to "be alive."
With the criminal case pending, Komoroski invoked her Fifth Amendment right to remain silent in the wrongful death lawsuit.
Judge Michael Nettles in August had agreed to grant bail for Komoroski if the case still hadn't gone to trial by March 1.
She has been placed on house arrest with an ankle monitor.

Such a stupid, clickbait story.

Yes this woman did a crime and will have to face the consequences. But to try and generate outrage and clicks because she has the audacity to try and continue living her life with some meaning and joy is nothing more than playing to mob justice.
Just about everything on Yahoo's front page is click bait. My absolute favorite (sarcasm) is the ones that start "______________ finally breaks their silence". As, though Jennifer Aniston was intentionally not commenting on Matthew Perry (for example).
