In your situation, it's important to note that the fact that your wife abandoned the marriage for 8 weeks due to an affair does not necessarily affect her entitlement to property in the divorce. The courts may consider this as a factor in the overall distribution of property, but it's not likely to lead to a complete denial of her property rights.
As for the property that is solely in your wife's name, the court may consider this as part of the marital estate and subject to equitable distribution. However, it's worth noting that some jurisdictions have laws regarding separate property, which can protect property acquired before the marriage or received as a gift or inheritance.
It's crucial to consult with an experienced family law attorney who can guide you through the specific laws in your jurisdiction and help you understand your rights and options in this situation. They will be able to assess your case and provide you with legal advice tailored to your unique circumstances.
