My husband is to be made bankrupt, we jointly own a timeshare but I paid for it so can they say it is an asset of his. Will I have to buy him out when I paid for it?!

If it is in joint names then the OR will probably look at your husband as owning 50% of any equity in the property but it will depend upon how much equity is in the property. If it is only a small amount then the OR may decide it is not worth their while pursuing the amount.

I would suggest having a quick chat with one, or both, of the companies below:

Reviva UK: http://www.revivauk.com/
Jones Giles - http://www.jonesgiles.co.uk/

They are both highly respected on this forum and will be available for a quick chat to discuss the time-share, any equity, etc.

Also on average a timeshare usually sells at about 10% of the price you originally paid for it

I only paid £1,200 for the timeshare and we only have it for 2 weeks of a year in Ibiza, the samd fortnight every year, last week of June, first week of July.
