“I Am Anti-Prenup”: Emmanuel Acho Reacts to Dak Prescott Potentially Breaking Up With Fiancee Over Prenuptial Disagreement

Those who are in favor of and feel it is necessary to have a prenuptial agreement in a marriage have a simple reasoning for it: If a partner truly plans to stick around through thick and thin, then signing a prenup shouldn’t be an issue. Many bring up examples of women walking away with massive payouts in divorce settlements to back their argument.

Well, it turns out Emmanuel Acho isn’t a prenup advocate. On his podcast, Speakeasy, the crew was discussing the split between Cowboys QB Dak Prescott and his fiancée, Sarah Jane Ramos, over a reported prenuptial agreement.

The former linebacker-turned-analyst began assessing the Prescott-Ramos situation with a bold, “I’m anti-prenup.” As far as Acho is concerned, if a man, or a woman, needs “a contingency plan for marriage, you shouldn’t be married.”

Acho added that partners are supposed to live a life together for the rest of their lives. That would entail serious responsibilities, such as having the power to decide on cutting life support of their significant other if such a medical situation arises.

So, prenup shouldn’t even be in question, insists Acho. If it is, the marriage shouldn’t happen. “If you need to protect yourself from your future partner, who you have to lay in bed with every night, the potential mother or father of your children, you shouldn’t be marrying them,” he added, before offering a bizarre analogy.

“A prenup to me is like a seatbelt in an airplane. If you need that seatbelt in an airplane, you’ve got way bigger issues than the seatbelt. Airplane going down… And I got money, I’m actually [still] anti-prenup,” said Acho.

The analogy, of course, doesn’t quite stick because you do need seatbelts on an airplane when taking off and landing. And as expected, Acho’s statement didn’t sit well with one of his co-hosts, former NFL running back LeSean McCoy.

To drive his counterpoint home, the two-time Super Bowl champ used an analogy about keeping car insurance even if the owner never gets into an accident. “Do you got a car? Do you drive? Do you drive every day?” McCoy asked, to which Acho responded affirmatively.

“Do you look to get in a car accident? [But] you have car insurance?” McCoy added, insinuating that even if you don’t expect to need insurance, you keep it for safety.

“I’ve got security [with a prenup], the same way people got car insurance… You got a car, you drive every day, every time, and if I get in a car accident, I’m protected… To make all that type of money, and you see times when people get divorced, and [one] person gets half?” McCoy elaborated before bringing up the Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren divorce settlement from 2010.

That settlement awarded Nordegren an estimated between $100 million and $110 million.

.@EmmanuelAcho and @CutonDime are AT MAJOR ODDS about whether or not pre-nups should be a part of marriage! Guess who takes what side

When it comes to a prenuptial agreement, it comes down to what both parties want. If one person wants a prenup and the other doesn’t, like reports suggest happened with Prescott and his fiancée, the marriage should be off. And if Acho was in Dak’s shoes and didn’t want a prenup, that’s fine too. To each their own.
