Can same-sex married couples divorce?

Yes if a gay couple is married, they can get a divorce. Gay married couples started getting divorced about 7 months after gay marriage was legalized in Massachusetts. There is no accurate divorce rate in the united states for gay married couples. Note same sex-couples can generally seek a divorce within jurisdictions that have redefined marriage to include same sex couples. In the vast majority of the world, same sex unions have no legal status as marriage, thus, in general, the courts cannot dissolve a union that has no legal existence within their jurisdiction.
