Your point is not arguing with the article however.
The article is not about how hot people find eternal stable relationships, but how they have more chances to get into relationships.
That you noticed them often break an older relationship and get into a new one corroborates the article, doesn't negate it.
And if we take away the stigma of divorce, which is supposed to mean some kind of personal failure, that's good for them.
It could also entail "ugly" people also wanting to divorce/play around more, but as they fear not having the same chances, they play it safe (and miserably).
So, yeah, it might not be that a less attractive person will "know no one ever" (absolute), but it will probably be that they'll have limited chances to get to know other people, and when they do, they'll tend to stick with them.
