The source for this statistic is sales data from an online legal forms website, originally here: https://legaltemplates.net/resources/personal-family/divorce...

I won't be surprised if numbers like this end up panning out, but I don't think this is much of a source.

Yeah, all of the headline, article, and source seem to be junk here. This is a law firm publishing an online "newspaper" named after itself, running a news story with a headline that misinterprets a quote from their own employees. They said that their sales were up 34%, not that divorce rates went up 34%!
