Reply #21: There are three different situations here, and they're probably all different.

The only one I know detail of is the first. That one started out quite poorly, when the woman came to the U.S. She brought her two small children with her. They're sweet kids, and they've picked up English amazingly quickly. The husband (who wanted children) was annoyed by the kids. Within months of their arrival, he was talking about divorcing her (he hasn't) and he claimed that she was attempting to find a younger American man. I don't know if this claim is true, but things have apparently been quite turbulent, and she doesn't seem very happy.

The other two marriages are very recent, and I really don't know much of the details.
