So if it's really not any of those things then is one of them (or both) really just that annoying?

But I think many of those couples that live/sleep apart and don't divorce only don't divorce because of the stigma against it. Why stay legally and financially entangled with someone you don't love (or love like that) any more? Particularly as a 'famous' couple, they're under far more scrutiny than others to be perfect. Divorcing can take that pressure off. I'd rather people do what they want and not feel stuck/trapped because divorcing just isn't done.
And I don't think you have to 'start over' or be young and attractive to want a divorce outside of infidelity or abuse.
Not that there couldn't be other reasons, mind you, but none we know about.
