Irreconcilable Differences
Irreconcilable differences means the marriage is broken beyond repair, and it is the most common ground for divorce in Florida. Florida is a no-fault state, so neither spouse has to prove the other did anything wrong—simply stating the marriage is irretrievably broken is enough. This is the basis for nearly every uncontested divorce our firm handles.

Legal Definition
Under F.S. §61.052, Florida grants dissolution of marriage on the no-fault ground that the marriage is irretrievably broken (the practical equivalent of irreconcilable differences), without requiring proof of marital misconduct.
Example
The couple filed citing irreconcilable differences, so neither had to blame the other to end the marriage.
