## Resource

In the Netherlands, divorce numbers are down overall—but older couples in their 60s and 70s are splitting up more than ever, sparking a quiet “grey divorce” wave. With divorce no longer stigmatized, many are choosing to part ways after decades together, especially once kids are gone and retirement looms. These separations are often calm, focused on minimizing hurt, yet deeply emotional. Surprisingly, even after divorce, some couples keep sharing lives—proof that endings can sometimes lead to new kinds of connection.
