How to tell if your relationship will survive 2025 as ‘divorce day’ is just around the corner, according to a lawyer

NO one ties the knot expecting to get a divorce, but one lawyer has said she can tell when newlyweds are heading that way.

In fact, Kristen Farris admitted she's got a bit of a sixth sense when it comes to predicting divorce.

“If I truly believe that they’re going to need it, I will put my business card in my wedding card,” the lawyer, 39, explained on TikTok.

Sometimes the risky move is taken as a joke, but it shouldn't be.

"I don’t do it to people I think will last,” she went on to explain, “I do it people that won’t last.”

After sharing her business card venture people slammed Kristen as "insane" on the social media site.

One commented on the viral clip: "In their wedding card? That's so tacky I would not appreciate a friend doing that."

"Damn, divorce attorney business card in their wedding card is a bit sloppy," someone else wrote.

But others who work in the wedding industry agreed they could also tell when lovebirds wouldn't last.

"As a wedding photographer I can tell immediately," one commented.

And a second agreed: "As a makeup artist working in the industry for the last 13 years I always know who is there for a marriage and who just wanted a wedding."

And according to another wedding photographer, there a few red flags that let them know a marriage is doomed from the start.

They explained: "The red flags are a huge wedding party with six plus bridesmaids, the bride and groom ignoring each other during the reception, and the groomsmen talking crap about the bride."

And another thought it all came down to one particular moment, they said: "As a wedding photographer I can tell A LOT about a couple while they're cutting their wedding cake.

"If they get through it together while genuinely smiling and enjoying the moment, green flag."

As for Kristen, she said the red flags she looks out for are "when one of the parents of the bride or groom offer to pay money for them not to marry the other person."

But Kirsten's controversial move might not be such a bad idea after all, since it comes just weeks before "Divorce Day".

According to the pros at, the first Monday of the new year is known as "Divorce Day" since it's the time "when couples are most likely to file for divorce or separation".

This date coming right after Christmas is no coincidence either, after a stressful festive period spouses often decide to call it quits after the New Year.

For 2025, that first Monday date is 6^th January 2025.
