========================



![Divorce: A silver lining](https://vardags.com/images/pictures/_360/e7c4b89a47216ef8108c20e901843c1f.jpeg)Ayesha Vardag was quoted by The Economist in the paper's column on so-called "Silver Splitters". The piece examined the trend of people divorce in their sixties, questioning why this trend had emerged.

The article surmised that it was a mixture of longer life expectancy, financial security for women and changing social attitudes which was causing the change. Ayesha told the paper "*Divorcees in their sixties and above overwhelmingly cite that there is less social stigma attached to divorce now than there used to be*."
