A New Zealand woman has caused a stir online after admitting her sister is in a relationship with her ex-husband.
According to Stats NZ, there were 7.6 divorces for every 1,000 estimated existing marriages and civil unions, down from 9.3 in 2013.
And while it’s still too early for 2024’s stats to be rolled out, one couple who reportedly signed off their split this year was mom-of-two Timara, 37, and her unnamed former husband.

According to The Daily Mail, the social media star was married to her ex for a decade, but separated from him after their first year together.
The pair finally got divorced earlier this year and Timara has since revealed that her former flame is now in a romantic relationship with her sister.
The mother made the announcement in a viral Instagram video which was posted to the platform earlier this week.

In the quick clip, the pair can be seen standing side-by-side as overlay text reads: "Wait, is your sister with your ex husband/baby daddy??”
The text is then replaced with the word ‘yup’ before the siblings begin dancing. In the clip’s caption, Timara wrote: “It’s keeping it in the family. Yup it’s weird but I choose not to be bothered by it.”
Hundreds of social media users have rushed the the video to have their say, with one commenting: “We listen and we don’t judge.”
A second typed: “Naah I can mature bout some things I mean my cousin did that to me and my kids but MY SISTER?! Yeah nah that dont fly. Good for yous though I guess sis.”

“What does he look like please, we look and we don’t judge,” penned a fellow user.
After posting the video, which now has over 386,000 views, Timara spoke to the Daily Mail about how she discovered the controversial relationship her sister was having with her ex.
“There wasn't really a conversation, I just noticed they were together and that was that,” she explained to the publication.
And despite it being a situation most would disapprove of, Timara has claimed she is ‘okay’ with her sister dating her baby daddy.

“I'm okay with it because everybody deserves love and happiness. My focus is on my own life, my little family and making sure I'm there for my daughter mentally and emotionally because she's the only one that matters in the situation.”
