Posted: 06/25/2012

LONDON - A recent British survey blames Facebook for nearly a third of all divorces.

And while this may or may not be true, more couples are citing what they see on their spouse’s profile page as evidence.

The UK survey found about 20% of divorce petitions containing Facebook references.

The most common seemed to be people having inappropriate chats. 

One woman even found out her husband was planning to divorce her via Facebook.
