Thanks brotha. I was just gonna say this too.
The courts don't give a fuck who gave you money for the down payment.
They gave that money to a married couple and that is HER money too.
@OP I suggest whatever she wants you to do, just do that shit.

I may be missing something , but why don’t you start the divorce and serve her? Also, the fact that your family put the money down on the house does not count when you are calculating the equity to be split when the house is a marital home.
This is a good time for you to get out of the marriage which seems irreconcilable because you are in your fifties and can still establish a good relationship with a beautiful woman.
