Kim Kardashian and Kanye West at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party in 2020 Credit: PA Like many married women, 42-year-old Katherine Jackson*, an architect from Winchester, believed the reason her marriage of 15 years had been struggling was a lack of ‘spending time together’. “I was very, very wrong,” says the mother of two, who has become one of the legion of spouses filing for so-called covid divorces. “During the first lockdown of 2020 - when we were free of the hassle of the daily commute, free of many of the external time pressures to which I had attributed many of our marital problems… I realised, it wasn’t a lack of time which was the problem. We’ve just both changed. Time spent together when there were few distractions only amplified that.”
