American actor, filmmaker and entertainment mogul Tyler Perry has revealed that he does not plan to get married, citing what he described as a “divorce pandemic” as one of the reasons behind his decision.
Perry, known for his successful career in film, television and theatre, said his perspective on marriage has been shaped partly by observing the experiences of people around him whose relationships ended in divorce.
“I’m never marrying, and it’s actually because of the divorce pandemic that’s happening. Everybody that I know that was doing well went broke because of divorce.”
The statement has generated reactions online, with discussions centring on marriage, divorce, wealth and the financial consequences that can arise when relationships involving significant assets come to an end.
Perry’s comments reflect a personal decision based on what he says he has observed among people within his social and professional circles. His position has also reignited broader conversations about whether financial considerations should influence decisions about marriage.
Divorce can involve substantial financial consequences depending on a couple’s assets, debts, business interests, existing agreements and the laws governing their marriage. However, the financial outcome varies significantly from one couple to another.
While Perry has chosen not to marry, his remarks have prompted debate over the different ways couples can protect their financial interests while building a marriage based on trust, communication and shared responsibility.
For Perry, however, the experiences he has witnessed have clearly influenced his personal approach to marriage — and for now, he says he would rather stay single.
