Molly Sims, 53, Advises Women To Avoid Marrying ‘Cheap' Men
Molly Sims is issuing a warning to women to avoid marrying "cheap" men.
The model and entrepreneur, 53, who just returned to the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue for the eighth time, has strong feelings about the type of men women should avoid. During a conversation on the Hot Smart Rich podcast, Sims issued a stark warning, advising other women to avoid cheap men.
"Don't f---ing marry them," Sims shared, opening up about how she and husband Scott Stuber navigate finances in their relationship. "We were trying to figure out all of our finances and you know he had had a bad situation before he met me and you know his people were very, very hard with me and look, it hurt me, I'm not going to lie," she said, adding, "I can see why, because you want to - when something goes wrong - you want to protect, you know, for the future. You have to know about your financial portfolio. Good, bad, ugly."
Sims went on to say, "If someone is cheap, don't marry them. If someone doesn't align with how you raise your children, how you look at money, how you see things, right? Like, it's so important to be aligned," PEOPLE reported.
