I personally would stay out of it. If there are problems existing in their relationship, chances are he already knows about it but doesn't want to mention it to others, whether it be from embarrasament or pride, let it be. If you really want to say something, I would put it to him that I saw something or heard something that didn't sound right and leave it up to him to fill in the rest. I understand your concern but this is HIS wife and HIS relationship. Let him know you're there for him, got his back, whatever but tread lightly. I don't want this to blow up in your face by getting too involved. There are extreme legal issues here that need to be handled by them and them alone. This kind of BS (and it is BS cause I've had this happen to me) that you're eluding to on her behalf could very well be true but please don't tell your brother this. He needs to find this out by himself. If he doesn't want to believe this or already suspects this and doesn't want to admit this to ANYONE, let alone his own brother, he very well could get very angry with you and this could ruin your relationship with him. On another angle, you could call her bluff, you could let her know that you know what's going on and that you're only going to give her a week to tell him or you will. Force her hand, let her think you know more than you actually do. Please think carefully about what you're going to do, this is a very delicate situation. Your relationship with your brother hangs in the balance.
