It depends on whether you file Chapter 7 and Chapter 13, the type of payment ordered in the divorce decree, and more. The general rule of thumb is no, but there are exceptions in Chapter 13 in the right circumstances.

You shouldn't have any problems. In my jurisdiction I would have filed a motion to have the judge rule the mortgage company waived any right to take adverse action (like failing to report your payments to a credit bureau, etc.) due to failure to execute a reaffirmation agreement because it was their fault none was ever filed. But don't worry it's still your house.
