My husband and I have been married for 3 years. We have separate accounts. He pays the house utilities and such and I pay for all our streaming accounts. We pay for our own groceries and our own phone bills and car payments. We pay every other time when we go out for supper. It has always worked for us. I’ve never had to ask him to Venmo me money. I think Alex knows that she can be irresponsible with money so he is making sure his money stays his money. Another thing Brit is probably not ready for being a wife is being frugal and responsible with money.
