You are entitled to live as per 'standard of living' of your husband at the time of separation. However, if you are earning 'sufficiently', you may be NOT be entitled to claim any maintenance. Besides, a "divorced wife" is also entitled to claim maintenance and she continue to be "wife" for this limited purpose [for the purposes of maintenance].
