Loading player...
According to various studies in the USA. Wives who earn more than their husbands pay a high price where happiness in the relationship is concerned. The "Breadwinner Wife" is the term now used for a woman who either earns the sole salary in the home, or who earns significantly higher than her husband. According to the studies, due to the multiple issues that men may have with this circumstance, Breadwinner wives are more likely to be cheated on, and more likely to get divorced. While this study was done in the US, what is the reality here in Mzansi? Is a happy relationship possible when a woman earns more than her husband does? Can couples in today's relationships find healthy ways to navigate big pay gaps?
