Do you know of couples who have separated or divorced late in life and after long marriages? What was their story?

Asked by Jeruba (55836points) November 18th, 2018

Definitions:

Late in life: age 65 or older
Long marriage: 30 years or more

Questions:

Why did it occur after so long?

What happened, and how did they work out the split? Domestic arrangements, finances, caregiving, division of property, children, wills: in general terms, what was the deal?

And, if you know, what was the triggering event or the last straw?
