I asked on the forums about these and I was informed that they were next to worthless in the eyes of UK law.

You can get married then divorce 3 months down the line and she is entitled to 50% of your wealth and 30-40% of your income for what may seem like forever.

What exactly do you mean ? Your thread title makes no sense, "pre" nup is exactly that, something you sign before marraige, it cannot be done after marriage.

What I mean is that how to approach this question in the first place without getting marriage cancelled!

It should have been compulsory so that awkward questions need not be raised

Wrong. You just need to be smarter than her Solicitor.

Firstly it helps if you both have a list of assets.

ATW. When you went through the sign up process with the Find Me A Foreign Bride agency you needed to tick the Pre-nup box at the end, next to the 'no advertising' box.

Since it's not enforceable here, save your (fictional) relationship the trouble caused by asking.
