If you are buying your own home you are the only person that has the rights to it, except the bank that financed the loan. The most he can take from you (in a divorce situation) would be the equity you have in the house and you have to be able to qualify for the loan from the bank for that to happen. He can't take a house that isn't yours or his. It's technically the banks until it is paid off.

When I divorced, the advice was to absolutely wait until the divorce was final before purchasing a home. That is, in a community property state, possibly construed as part of the settlement. You should obtain a lawyer's advice in order to either title or put the home in a trust so that it is held separate. If you are making payments, make sure you are the one paying directly to the mortgage company, giving you "vested interest."
