Canon lesbian witch divorce. they try to kill each other as early as episode one and they do not stop there. they literally had a child together, but that does not stop all the attempted murder and then actual kiss of death.

agatha being the one to suggest summoning a green witch and then IMMEDIATELY attacking rio when it turns out rio is the green witch summoned (that entire scene is gold tbh)

The Couple from "Fairytale of New York"

they were doomed from the start they were a REBOUND marriage for louis and they both knew it. he was literally hallucinating his previous ex husband for the duration of their relationship. now consider for your viewing pleasure exhibit a, the season 2 episode 5 louis and armand san francisco fight. now tell me that isn't straight out of who's afraid of virginia woolf. divorce energy SIZZLING under every line. now we can turn to exhibit b, their actual divorce as facilitated by pulitzer prize winning journalist daniel molloy in season 2 episode 8. louis, furious at armand's unforgivable betrayal and the lie he's been living for the past 77 years. armand, desperately trying to cling to this marital facade as a semblance of security because he Cannot Handle Being Alone. when louis throws him against the wall of their penthouse home/prison (where they used to hang a bacon triptych that armand sold without consulting louis) and it cracks, it represents the shell of their prison/marriage crumbling, the divorce made physically manifest. add into the mix that this divorce inspired louis to go visit his OTHER ex husband again AND that the guy who revealed armand's lie is probably also (if we're following book canon) armand's 12-year-long extramarital affair. like this is peak divorce... thank you for your attention and this concludes my presentation.

they were never together but they were close friends (and he certainly had a crush on her) until they betrayed each other, he poisoned her when she still trusted him and then they tried to kill each other again and again for years (eventually ending in her death) — he cared about her and he failed to save her, and watching him go from trying to protect her and trusting her even when warned not to in the early seasons to hating/trying to defeat her, and her wanting nothing more than his death, in the later seasons is devastating

he blames himself for what happened to her/what she became… [meme voice] it’s about the betrayal (both ways)

quotes from the show:

“i won’t abandon her” [he says this many times then proceeds to abandon her]

“i’m not afraid of her all i feel for her is sad”

“she is the darkness to your light, the hatred to your love”

“he is your destiny and he is your doom”

“it doesn’t have to be like this, we can find another way” “there is no other way”

Ultimate tragic divorce pairing. Never got to have the divorce they deserved. They could have been so petty together.

from the show 911, they were Highschool sweethearts that got teen pregnant then a bunch of shit happened, but the important part is that years later they started hooking up again, thought she was pregnant again but turns out she wasn’t, and he wanted to get back together but she asked for a divorce. Then she got hit by a car and died and the only other person on the show who knew about it is dead now

Why did he even sign the papers?? He's clearly still in love with her the whole entire time, but she is better than him. Then they try to get married again, but he Ultra Divorces her by getting demolecularized on their (re)wedding day.

They were best friends (in a kinda homoerotic way) before Morgana went evil and Gwen almost ran away with a handsome knight but he died, so she married Morgana’s half brother so she could literally wage war against her ex-bff/lover who was trying to kill her new husband. Divorced AF.

Isaac Newton/Gottfried Leibniz
