What are the grounds for divorce UK?

The only ground for divorce in England and Wales is the irretrievable breakdown of marriage. It is no longer necessary to rely on any other specific facts such as adultery, unreasonable behaviour or separation.

The only requirement is that one or both parties to an application for divorce or dissolution confirms that the relationship has irretrievably broken down. Apart from this statement, no other grounds, proof or specific details are required.
