For one, Koharu is a pragmatist. She wants money? Well, there's an idiot with Oak funding right there. Just marry and divorce him for all he's worse. Of all the girls who are most likely to marry Ash, it's Koharu, who is willing to do what is necessary rather than twiddle their thumbs in the background like Serena, Dawn, or Misty.
For two, where is Ash now? This might seem irrelevant to you, but it isn't. The truth is, after Koharu took all of his money, Ash no longer had the funding to pay other people to train his pokemon. No more private tutoring in Charcific valley, no more elite Kalosians raising his auro dog for him, no more fossil resurrection facilities pumping his newest fossilmon with the juiciest genetics, no more bribing dragons with generational wealth to fight for him, etc. And finally, no more bribing champions to take a dive for him in world championships. Once the money ran out, that was it, Ash was finished. He had nowhere left to go, no one left to invest in him. He was a silver spoon from start to finish, suckling upon the teat of Oak's initial investment and the fame it provided.
We no longer see Ash because Koharu has left him destitute.
And no woman wants a destitute man, so there are no women left to pick up the scraps.
Koharu got the last laugh. Koharu won the Ashbowl, and she claimed all the bounty that was within, leaving not a drop for anyone else.
