Gen Z isn’t hiding their divorces—they’re redefining them as a new beginning. Yes, in just their 20s, Gen Z is already experiencing divorce. But instead of shame, young divorcés treat breakups as fresh starts. They’ve seen celebs like Emily Ratajkowski get “divorce rings,” showing them symbols of reinvention, not failure. And many splits among young couples aren’t about scandal but about prioritizing mental health, mismatched “vibes” they noticed late (think different love languages or ambition levels), or simply wanting a different future. But with fewer assets like homes than older gens may have had even early in marriage, Gen Z opts for quicker, cleaner exits. And as with most things, they’re not afraid to share the journey on TikTok or YouTube. (NYT)
