Hes in Cuckoo land !!

Hi all,
I had to move out of the joint owned home in June 2021. He remained in the property whilst I had to rent. He has not paid anything towards our 2 teenagers who live with me- all he had to do was continue to pay the mortgage and his bills. We did not have this drafted in any order at the time.
It is now evident that he has missed 7 months mortgage and we are now being taken to court. I do understand that I should have continued to pay my half but to be honest the rent and bills in the new house and also 2 growing teenagers has left me with very limited funds each month.
We have the first financial hearing in march 2023. How can I explain this to the Judge (and now also the Mortgage legal team) that whilst I am liable I received no financial support from Ex as he said he would continue to maintain / pay the joint home.
He is adamant that he does not want to go to court, mediate, sell the house. He is living in cuckoo land
