Who should resign if a couple work in the same organisation?

If a married couple happen to work in the same organisation and there is a need for one of them to resign, who should take the fall?

This career woman is really worried

"Dear Pulse,

My name is and I got married to my husband, , in October, 2015, but barely few months after our wedding, we are having conflict already and it has been causing friction in our home.

I work with a multinational company as a a regional manager in Lagos, with a very good salary. I was the one who helped Tim in my company but then, we were just friends.

But along the line, we became lovers and after dating for a while, we got married but going by the company's policy, a husband and his wife cannot work in the same office.

The onus is now on us to decide who should resign and not wanting to lose me due to what I bring to the company, the management advised Tim to resign, even promising to help him become and independent distributor for the company.

But husband thinks I connived with the management to come up with the idea and insists that I be the one to resign, even when he knows that we would not be able to survive on his salary.

The twist is that members of his family all agree with him that I should be the one to resign, with the argument that in their culture, it is the man who provides for his family. No one is ready to also see reason with me even when my staying in the company would be to the benefit of everyone.

Tim has given me an ultimatum to resign at the end of this month or I will leave his house.

What do you think I should do in this situation?
