Laura Clery, a 39-year-old actress and comedian, has written a memoir detailing her tumultuous divorce from her ex-husband, Stephen Hilton. In the book, she shares her experiences with his infidelity, their separation, and the subsequent financial hardships she faced.
Divorce and Financial Struggles
Clery describes how she was left to pay for both her mortgage and Hilton’s, as well as two years of mediation, which led to significant financial strain. At one point, her water was shut off in her $3 million home, leaving her feeling ‘broke’ and in need of a wake-up call to take control of her finances.
She also recounts the emotional toll of the divorce, including false allegations of child abuse and a custody battle. Clery was ultimately awarded full custody of their children, with Hilton receiving supervised visitation.
Throughout the memoir, Clery reflects on the lessons she learned from her experiences, including the importance of facing her financial fears and taking responsibility for her own life. She expresses hope for her ex-husband’s recovery from addiction and a possible future where their children can spend time with him without court supervision.
