With a deed of separation, all the terms and conditions are formalized. You do not have to worry if your spouse will change his/ her mind in the future.

Further, the deed of separation will serve as proper proof that you are actually separated!

There are couples who may live apart, but are not separated.

Annie Yi is one such example. It was recently revealed that she does not live with her husband, Qin Hao. After being probed by the media, she clarified that Qin Hao has been shuttling from city to city and that the couple decided that their child should live with her mother and not shuttle around with her father.

She clarified that her husband does visit her and their child when his schedule permits. She further explained that their separation is for her daughter and there are no cracks in the marriage.
