I didn’t watch the show – but I read the bit at the link…
Divorce is expensive. Of course it’s more expensive to have 2 households, vs one. My parents came close to divorce more than once – but the financial realities (retirement moneys split, etc) kept them together… And they found a way to work it out and rekindle, over time. Maybe that gives me a different perspective than most – seeing my parents get VERY close to divorce, and find a way to work it out – through a lot of work and effort.
I’ve got friends who “fell out of love” and got divorced. The men complain about child support, and a lowered lifestyle because the ex got half the assets. The women complain about loss of the life they had before (material things) and how hard it is to make ends meet. There are no winners.
