2019 Top Celebrity Divorces

They say divorce is never a pleasant thing, but maybe for some, it is and at times the best thing that can happen for two individuals. Also, did you know the divorce rate has fallen from 49% a decade ago to 46%? No one really knows the reason behind the numbers and as there are many speculations. Santa Rosa family law lawyer Paul Lozada states, “More couples than ever are living together and having kids out of wedlock, for a variety of reasons. And they call it quits just like their married counterparts”. It is much more common to be life partners than married couples in the 21st century.
