In a divorce, alimony is not limited to only the husband paying the wife. It is a question of income, length of marriage, and many other variables. If the wife made considerably more than the husband, and the marriage was a long one, the wife may have to pay alimony to the husband. They are the same variables used in determining if a husband should pay the wife, though in many cases the husband made more than the wife did during the marriage.
