英格兰威尔士的官方数据表明，异性婚姻的离婚模式正在改变。1去年超过四分之一的异性婚姻离婚发生在结婚二十年或以上，在102,879宗离婚案件中占26%。1相比之下，结婚五至九年期间的离婚占比为23%，"五至九年"类别首次降至第二位。1
英格兰威尔士2025年平均婚姻时长达到13年，创下1963年有记录以来的最长纪录。1离婚律师Lisa Pepper指出，许多夫妇为了孩子而选择延长婚姻生活。1与此同时，法律专家Rebecca Aston-Jones表示，生活成本是阻止部分不幸婚姻分手的主要因素。1这一趋势在国际上也有所体现，美国皮尤研究集团的数据显示，自1990年代以来，二十年后离婚的比例已翻倍。1
Opposite-sex marriages in England and Wales are increasingly ending after two decades rather than during the traditionally cited "seven-year itch" period, according to official data.1 Last year, 26 percent of opposite-sex divorces among 102,879 cases occurred after couples had been married for 20 years or longer, making this the second most common point for marriages to dissolve.1 The five-to-nine-year category, which previously held the second position, has now dropped with 23 percent of divorces occurring during this period.1
The average duration of marriages in England and Wales reached 13 years in 2025, the longest on record since statistics began in 1963.1 Research from the Pew Research Center in the United States found that the proportion of divorces occurring after 20 years has doubled since the 1990s.1
Divorce lawyer Lisa Pepper attributed the trend to couples deliberately staying together for their children's sake, stating: "The largest proportion of cases I see are after long-term marriages. Staying together for the children is real."1 Legal experts also point to economic pressures as a contributing factor; Rebecca Aston-Jones, a family law specialist in England and Wales, identified the cost-of-living crisis as a significant barrier preventing unhappy couples from separating.1
