A good sleazeball lawyer can get any pre-nup cancelled, the divorce law here in California states that what you bring into a marriage stays yours and only assets gained during the marriage are split down the middle. Each State has different rules.
useful tip The law may have changed, ,but it used to be the law that if a Brit got married overseas to a foreigner the marriage was invalid in the UK unless it was registered within 30 days at the local British embassy/ consulate in the country where the marriage took place, saved quite a few of my mates who didn't want to bring the local exotic beauty home to meet Mum .
