January is the top month for divorces

According to the New York Post, January is the peak month for women to dump their husbands. Gloria Allred adds her insight: "In January, people are returning gifts and recycling husbands." She adds that "It's that the fault lines are showing underneath the surface and in January it explodes."

A New York divorce lawyer adds that the most common reason for divorce is that during the holiday season one spouse may discover their partner's hanky-panky.
