Whilst talking about finances isn't the most romantic topic, it's essential to every relationship. In the final episode of What The Finance, Mel Browne and Pallavi Sharda explore everything love and money, from joint bank accounts, marriage and divorce, and 'sexually transmitted debt'.  Two special guests join them; Catherine Fitzpatrick, Director Vulnerable Customers & Financial Resilience at Westpac, and family lawyer Melanie Tonazzi, to shine a light on financial abuse.
