You are not responsible for anothers persons debt, even if married unless you are a co-debtor on the debt.
There are circumstances where the debt could become an issue, like if you bought a house in both of your names and the unpaid creditors put liens against your property.
By him filing bankruptcy now this should not be an issue.
