Well if she has a solicitor he will be sorting all that out. There is no set division of assets, it either has to be agreed by both parties or the Court decides. She could be awarded all of it ... it all depends on how long they have been married, are there children etc. etc. but if she is lying about the amount of the borrowing it should be quite easy to prove.
