Molly and Emese sit down with Belle Burden, author of Strangers: A Memoir of a Marriage, whose story—a sudden betrayal, COVID lockdown, and a marriage that ended overnight — became one of the most talked-about pieces in The New York Times Modern Love column. Belle gets candid about the prenup clause that came back to haunt her, why so many women unknowingly hand over their financial power in a marriage, and why she refused to pretend any of it was "amicable." And she shares the slow, unglamorous process of coming back to herself—and what she'd tell every woman to do differently. This isn't a bitter divorce story. It's a story about self-trust, financial awareness, and the surprising gifts that can emerge from a life coming undone. Strangers: A Memoir of a Marriage is out now.
