Things could be difficult for awhile -- but it is temporary. Unless he is at the dissertation stage, you will finish your studies first. You may be the bread-winner for a couple of years.
You might try to get some educational loans.

I think you can make it work. After the guy gets a PhD., he will get a teaching position, which will be sweet. You just have to make it through this rough patch.

I don't know if the UK has any differences, but I know in the US, if you submitted under your maiden name you must use it to retain the title. Therefore, one option you have is to use your maiden name professionally (with your title and everything) and then use your husband's name personally. This is what the majority of women I know do. Hope that helps :)

Well, yeah, you can probably survive on that, but it won't be very exciting. Perhaps you should work for a couple of years before starting your Masters.

if you are smart enough to get a PHD, then you are smart enough NOT TO GET MARRIED.
