It’s like people that don’t have money, try to live like they have money when in reality, they don’t. My dad used to always tell me “your bills come first before anything else”.

      The other commenter is right, statistically men are much more likely to remarry after divorce or death of a spouse, and when they do, it's typically much faster than their female counterparts. There are a lot of reasons for that, including the fact that these older single men are more desirable on the dating market than older single women, and that men typically rely on a romantic partner more for emotional and domestic support than women do. Women can be happier single if they have deep friendships with other women. Married men are happier, richer, and live longer than single men. Married women are on average unhappier, die sooner, but are richer than single women. There's more upside for men, so they're making a rational choice to couple up again.

      "We" and "our" refers to the current couple. I think she was trying to be clear, if she said "our children", people might assume she's talking about children that she and her current husband had. She's making it clear that the budget she and her current husband are trying to stick to was upended by a surprise on her end that had nothing to do with the current husband. People who are remarried with kids from a previous relationship will frequently say "my husband's kids are joining us for Thanksgiving this year, and then my kids will be at our home for Christmas". Everyone understands what is meant by that, it doesn't mean the children were created asexually and don't have two biological parents like the rest of us.
