It seems more and more couples that have been married for decades, are deciding to call it quits, in a trend that's being labelled 'grey divorce'. 

In this episode of The Quicky, we take a look at all the reasons why our older generations are filing for divorce, and how it's impacting their adult children.

PM: Billion Dollar Package To Help DV Victims, Fake Patients At Regional Hospital

A little bit gossip never hurt anybody… or so we tell ourselves.

What we know gossip to be now, is very different from how it once was.

From its old timey use during childbirth, to the more modern day concept of swapping secrets, and even its application as a tool for women’s safety, gossip has been through many, many phases.

So how do we feel about gossip in 2024?
