The graph shows the number of marriages and divorces in the UK between 1975 and 2000.

The line graph gives information about the number of marriages and divorces in the UK over a period of 25 years.
Overall, while the number of marriages increased over the period, the number of first marriages declined. The figure for divorces rose steadily.

There were almost 500,000 marriages in the UK in 1975, and this figure rose steadily to reach a peak of 640,000 in 1985. Despite a gradual decrease to560,000 in 1995, the number rose again to 570,000 at the end of the period. By contrast, although the figure for first marriages rose from 370,000 to 410,000 from 1975 to 1985, the number then declined steadily to just over 300,000 in 2020.

However, whereas the figure for second marriages stood at only 200,000 in 1975, this rose to 260,000 by the end of the period. In 1975, there were only 80,000 divorces, although this number more than doubled over the next 5 years. The numbers then witnessed an increase to reach a peak of 250,000 by 2020, at times overtaking the figures for second marriages.
