Divorce Rings

The World Bank Population and Vital Statistics website shows that the countries that have the highest divorce rates are Maldives (5.52 per 1000 people), Liechtenstein (4.9), Russia (4.7), Kazakhstan (4.6), Belarus (3.7) and  Georgia (3.7) with the United Kingdom coming in at 2 per 1000 people with 23% of couples filing for divorce between 5 to 8 years of saying their vows with the most common reasons cited being adultery (32%), growing apart (27%), and lack of communication (11%).
The average age at divorce is 47 for men and 45 for women so many middle aged divorcees can now get in on the action of Divorce Rings.
Apparently it is now a thing that to celebrate? commiserate? becoming single again people are taking their engagement and wedding rings to jewellers and asking them to mash them together into new finger furniture.
The new fashion is to wear the ring on the middle finger to tell the World that you are divorced which could be seen as advertising your new found free and single status  although a quick look at the ones i have seen they are..to be kind...not delicate looking things.
I guess as it is two rings welded into one (or the repurposing of symbolic pieces reclaiming the life event as a positive move )they will be quite big and clunky looking things but if you are looking for a positive and empowering way to mark the end of a marriage and the start of a new, independent life then go for it, at least it's better than a tattoo.
