Legal Question in Family Law in Virginia

Recently my wife transferred a joint account credit card balance to a new card with a lower interest rate. The original card had both of our names on the account. After all was said and done I noticed that mine was the only name on this new credit card account. This debt has been accrued during our thirty five years of marriage. I guess my question is, in the event of a separation and divorce would both parties still be held responsible for this debt?

Thank You for your help!
