That is another odd thing. I have known numerous couples who lived in one bedroom apartments when they were newlyweds.
Heck, good friends of my husband, a married couple, lived in the tiniest, tiniest studio apartment that I have ever seen in my life (while they were in law school). I couldn't even imagine one person living there let alone two people. But, they made it work because they were in love.
I can see not wanting to if one doesn't have to. Her apt. is tiny, his is larger, and they have to pay for both. I guess I don't get getting married to begin with if one cannot move in with the other. IDK why it matters that his ex is on the lease. We agree on this: Newly weds want to be together.
Do we know for certain Belle currently works in fast food? She did in the past but has possibly found a better job. She cant drive now. Maybe she lives within close commuting distance to work. Hubby lives in a different city too far for daily commute. They havent been able to find a workable apartment yet due to holidays and various logistics.

I believe the last she updated us on her job situation, she had found something better/outside of fast food. Hopefully options will open up for her more once she gets a driver’s license.
IMO when you are married, your spouse comes first. Not sure if it is still in the marriage vows, used to say "forsake all others and keep myself only unto you". It sounds like the husband is still putting his family of origin first. This does not bode well for the future. When mom wants him to come visit, he will jump, even if it inconvenient to you. When she has strong ideas about how you raise your kids, he will insist that you listen to her. When you find that he takes their side in arguments, and does not stick by YOUR side, come back and read this thread and see that you were warned.
BTW, it is usually considered that pregnancy announcements are rude when they interfere with (or steal the thunder from) a wedding, not the other way around.

The sister didn't know though. Even if that happened. That was his excuse for not saying anything at Christmas.
