I Found Out After Marriage That My Husband Works at a Mortuary. He Told Me He Was a Care Specialist at a Hospital

Madam, based on the information provided, your husband may not necessarily have lied to you about his job. A person who works in a hospital mortuary may legitimately describe their work as caring for deceased patients or providing care and support for human remains, depending on their actual duties and job title.

The important question is whether he deliberately gave you false information about his employment. If he simply told you that he was a care specialist at a hospital and he actually works there in a role involving the care of deceased persons, that statement alone does not automatically amount to fraud or misrepresentation.

However, if you specifically asked him what his duties were and he intentionally concealed the fact that he works in a mortuary because he knew you would object, that could raise a different issue of honesty and trust within the marriage.

Before making a serious decision about your marriage, it would be better to have an honest conversation with him and find out exactly what his job involves. Working in a mortuary is a legitimate occupation, just as working in other areas of a hospital is. There is nothing inherently unlawful about the job.

This may therefore be more of a matter of communication and expectations between the two of you than a legal problem. You should establish the facts first before concluding that your husband deceived you or that the marriage has been built on false information.
