The fact that a married person permits his or her spouse to have the custody, control, and management of separate property shall not of itself be sufficient evidence that the married person has relinquished title to the property. However, the presumption shall be that the spouse is acting as the agent or trustee of the other. This presumption may be rebutted by any evidence establishing a sale or gift of the property to the other spouse.
