In South African law the main grounds for divorce are irretrievable breakdown of the marriage relationship, in other words, that matters between the spouses has deteriorated to such an extend that there is no reasonable prospect of a normal marriage relationship being restored. A divorce can be an emotional process for everyone involved. Not only does the couple have to go through the difficulty of splitting assets and the pain of a break in the relationship, but if children are in the picture, their emotions come into play as well.
