What happens if you divorce while pregnant?
If you divorce during pregnancy, there may be a few issues standing in the way of you collecting child support while you are with child. Paternity is one example. It is difficult to establish the paternity of an unborn child, so child support orders are unlikely to be issued by the court.
Do both husband and wife have to agree to divorce?
Generally, the divorce papers do not need signatures from both parties to move forward. There is little need to ensure that the other spouse is in agreement to end the marriage legally. However, if both spouses are amenable to the process, it can permit both to progress through the divorce amicably.
How many divorced couples get back together?
In her study of 1,001 reunited couples from around the world, only about 6 percent said they married, divorced and remarried the same person. On a more positive note, though, 72 percent of those who reunited stayed together, particularly if their separations occurred at a young age.
