[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would include the return of the ring in the list of items to be negotiated.  You are willing to return it.  What is he willing to do to meet his obligations under the settlement of the divorce?[/quote]

I agree with this.

Etiquette states that an engagement ring should be returned if the engagement is broken, but once the marriage takes place, the wife has the right to keep the engagement ring.  In this case, if she knew that the ring belonged to the trust and needed to be returned to the trust eventually at the time she accepted the ring, she should return it.

But the timing of its return can be negotiated.  I would negotiate to return it after a nice sized child support payment is made, perhaps equivalent to the current value of the ring.  Could DH borrow that from the family trust and repay the family trust if he doesn't have the money himself?  It seems the only reason for DW to keep the ring would be to sell it.  Otherwise, it's just a reminder of the pain of the bad marriage and divorce.[/quote]
