In the digital age, divorce is getting a whole lot more complicated. With social media platforms offering lucrative opportunities, couples going through a split are facing a new challenge: who gets to keep the followers, and the income that comes with them?
The Wall Street Journal reports that a growing number of couples, and their divorce attorneys, are struggling to assess the value of social media accounts in divorce settlements.
