Legal Question in Bankruptcy in Texas

Divorced from someone now filing Chapter 7

I have been divorced from a man for over 2 years now. In the divorce decree, my ex-husband was given responsibility of repaying 2 credit cards and a loan on a boat - all of which were joint accounts. I have recently found out my ex-husband has filed Chapter 7. How will this affect my credit?
