Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

I am 62 husband 58 . we are divorcing after almost 15 years, we own home both names on home. Long story short my husband is threatning some personal information I confided in him 15 years ago, which I would not want my grown children to know. Grown kids are 42, 37and 32, If I fight him in the dovorce case about what he thinks is fair as far as splitting assets, If i don't go along with what he thinks I should get he will tell about this personal info to my children (inpaticularone of them) thathe knows I do not want them to know, It will hurt everyone involved. This has absolutly nothing to do with him it happened 32 years ago in another lifetime ago and to try to use this on me now is really low. what do I do? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I suggest you tell him that if he does this, it will only hurt him in the long run. The children will hate him and they will of course be angry with you for not tellling them. I have to tell you though, sometimes what you think they don't know, they do. They just don't know how to approach you about it. At their current ages, I believe you won't be harmed in devulging the truth. If I can be of assistance please don't hesitate to contact my office 904-997-1031. Also don't let him hang this over you so that you do not get your fair share of things. You never know a person until you marry them and then again when you divorce them.
