Martin Lewis has issued a warning to couples up and down the country as he encouraged families to have "unpleasant" chats about finances.
The MoneySavingExpert founder explained how you have no control over where your assets go after you die unless you have a will in place.
Under current rules in England and Wales - known as intestacy rules - if you are married or in a civil partnership, you don't have a will, and your estate is worth less than £270,000, then everything would automatically go to your spouse.
