The Divorcees of Tik Tok
Umieść na stronie
- Opublikowany 28 lut 2019
- I saw a Twitter thread of recently-divorced people making TikToks gained a lot of attention, so after seeing this, I decided to do a deep dive into the strange world of "Divorce TikTok". I've compiled my favourite divorce Tik Toks from all over and we're gonna watch all of them. So come along as we try to figure out why this is happening, who is making these...and maybe we'll even learn something about relationships along the way.

Kurits, usually in the United States we have the folded flags for those who gave their life to this country in the service! Not sure if they do that in Canada, but if anyone else in the comments knows, please respond!
Kurtis delivering a joke while editing is the equivalent of thinking of a great comeback once you’re done arguing
Or leaving a comment three years after the video was released
@EclecticNostalgia The spirit of the stair??? Tf?
Mad respect for his ability to still deliver it to the intended audience, which is very different than a shower wall or windshield, like I did
haha azula pfp
omg yes
Imagine going on TikTok and your parents saying they’re getting divorced shows up on your fyp
@your local lesbian thank you!
I can relate to your username
Love your username
@Lisette García true, but I don’t think my parents were married in the first place lol
If u thot it, it has happened
The six stages of grief after divorce:
Denial
Anger
Tiktok videos
Depression
Acceptance
I honestly thought you were trying to type a secret message with your comments an I had a Sbeve moment I was like wtf does that tdatda mean 🤔
and dont forget: REVENGE
please dont actually do that please its just a reference i dont wanna be complicit in murder please*
Tha's only five!
Cmon guys he’s like 10 we know this is only 5
Kurtis being supportive of women who are happy getting a divorce, because it's probably for the best?
YES.
@Nate Box your name is great nate. Regardless of all this boys against gals thang...we will bang. I mean look at all the people..and statistically speaking....most men do the bare minimum. Being one myself. However, me gal likes it.
@you are made of stardust my name is Nathan.
@Nate Box of course your name is nate
@Nate Box look up the percentage of men that leave their spouse with a cancer diagnosis vs women. In sickness and in health is kind of the bare minimum isn’t it?
@Dustin Allen It wasn't about that but it's no surprise you failed, again, to understand what was written in my comment
My dad acts like these dudes, he’s so dramatic. He treated my mom like shit, and he still does. My mom on the other hand, she’s been so happy ever since it happened. Yet my dad is like “what diD I ever dO to you! WAAAHhhh I LoVe YOUuUU” like fucking end me.
Same bestie
LITERALLY EXACTLY
@uzui tengen same like and my dads actually after years seeing her true colors like he was so blind before
@Deviency lmao same. Besides being dramatic af mine also is a compulsive liar and talks abt himself like he's a protagonist in a movie.
Same…
**bursts into tears**
my parents got divorced but they never made a tiktok, so does this mean they’re still together?
@Oliver wait- we have the same name:D
That just means that they are the worst parents ...
Sorry but yes 😔
yes
Legally, yes
“I’m a pop punk mime”
*speaks immediately*
That's the punk part. Don't abide by the rules lol
@Honda Accord lmfaooooo
Punks are all about rebellion
@dezmond Stone oh lord its a catch 22
@criss holy shit by breaking the laws he followed the laws
My ex is still the love of my life. I cry every night over what a wonderful person I lost, but I needed to get divorced in order to really cash in on the spiteful divorce tiktoks as I was running out of quality content ideas. Telling them I needed a divorce was the most painful thing I've ever done and I'll never stop loving them no matter how hard I try.
No regrets tho I gained like 2k followers
You are so brave :(
So it was all worth it 😌
Oh my god I was not expecting to blast tea out of my nose tonight
That guy at the end didn’t seem like a good father, he’s telling his kids that he got divorced with their mother and he’s recording it for a literal tik tok for hearts and followers
I'm pretty sure they already knew.
Philly D just covered a video of a woman coaching her son to act sad for a thumbnail about them having to put their dog down. As she's telling him how to adjust his face and to look more sad, he keeps repeating "But I am sad..." My heart just broke for that child. His grieving wasn't dramatic enough for her so she needed him to fake more emotions.
I don't think I've seen something so sick and manipulative in a long time. I'd put this second to one of Mark Rober's package thief videos where a mother had her son steal a package. When they got home, the son, who is about 12, says "I think I like doing this." She asks "Doing what?" And he says "Stealing". She gets all stern and tells him that's not good...but she just had him steal for her! From that point forward, you have forever lost the high ground with telling your child how to behave! I don't get it...I know parenting isn't easy but there are just some things that should go without saying, like not teaching your child how to emotionally manipulate people or to not steal 🤦🏾♀️.
@Kami um excuse me they did *what*
Reminds me of the Labrant Fam when they did a 'prank' on their child by saying the dog ran away and obviously the kid was upset and was crying. They filmed her and she was burying her face in a cushion and they kept pulling the pillow away so they could film her crying. Just awful
My dad definitely would've told us through a tiktok if we had it back then. He actually sat us down before he told my mom that he wanted a divorce and asked us if there was any music he could play to cheer us up.
@nootnoot tbf when my parents split both of them individually listened to 'Good for You' by olivia rodrigo endlessly so like it could be worse
@nootnoot y i k e s
my dad dipped out for weeks at a time to go drink, and whenever he disappeared, my mom used to play 'blame it' by jamie foxx
You know,
'Blame it on the a-a-a-a-a-a alcohol'
I used to bump my head to it with her but wow what a weird time 🤣🤣
@Big Wendigo I can understand how you would think that but when the person who was the kid in the situation is saying that it wasn’t productive and was in someway traumatic, then it wasn’t that good of an idea
Playing a song to comfort your kid in a hard time would be great. Lip syncing a song to break the divorce to your kids while recording it to get clout on tiktok is fucking disgusting in my opinion.
Wait until we get Tik Toks after funerals or when they're hospitalised 😂
now we are 💀
@ali akeel If I ever need surgery again in the future, I will definitely make sure someone is there to ensure my surgeon is not on Tik Tok while I’m under anesthesia.
I just got sad. D: I remembered the TiKTok of the girl with underlying conditions who got COVID and made a TikTok about how scared and alone she felt because they were just about to put her on a ventilator. DD:
I’ve made TikToks in hospital about being in hospital, not like sad videos wanting attention, more like an “ayo here we go again lads” kinda joke.
Makes me think of the guy who snapchatted a selfie of him literal seconds after he got shot.
Wasn't even graphic and the dude was straight up smiling. Still processing that energy 7 years after the fact.
my favorite thing in the world is when Kurtis says something is "insanely funny" without laughing at all
Ig you could say that makes it insanely funnier
People make weird tik toks about every sad situation. This girl at my school’s maid’s kid died, super sad, sucks that it happened. But then she made a tiktok called “POV, your maid’s daughter died and you never realized how much of a sister she was to you until right now” which is... disrespectful (to the kid’s mom). Also it was a video of her fake crying with a black and white filter on it. I mean dude if ur gonna insult someone who’s daughter just died on so many levels, learn what POV stands for.
It’s hard for me to articulate why this type of content is so repulsive to me but oh my gosh it makes my cringe/second hand embarrassment alarms go through the roof. Like why are people so obsessed with turning genuinely sad/traumatic moments into entertainment and trivializing it.
Bro people like that physically repulse me, if she would come anywhere near me I swear I would do whatever it takes to get away from that thing.
If they were that close she would have said "friend" and not "maid's daughter" as if she wasn't her own person
Id like to imagine that while these people were making sad divorce videos, their former SO was throwing a divorce party having fun trashing the wedding dress/suit with their best friends 😂
I wouldn't be surprised tbh
My parents told us their getting a divorce a week after they told us we where going to Disney world. Oh yeah, and when they told us they where getting a divorce they also said we’re not going to Disney world. I’m 23 and still haven’t gotten over it. I really wanted to go to Disney world😢
have u gone to Disney world yet bestie?🥺🥺
@Annisa Monica ayyo take me with you I'm the product of a broken home too, and I can fit in the trunk of a 2014 Ford focus
@Kimmie E omg?? 😭💀
My parents broke up while we were at Disneyland (right outside splash mountain). Maybe it’s best you didn’t go 😂
I might be late but I'll go to Disney World with you! I'm your parent now, even if I'm only 3 years older, and we're going to Disney World!!
I feel like his impressions of the song are 10× better than the actual song
They are
yep heaven to ears
the moms and dads song 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@Pongo yes plz
They are
You know the dad is just emotionally manipulating his daughters into thinking their mum is the issue and the bad person in all of this when he's the one with the goatee and the trucker hat (iykyk)
I’m a lawyer and I can confirm you will need the marriage certificate for the divorce 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The sad reality that too much men would actually agree with “yeah I might have cheated but she wants a divorce, that’s way worse!”
There's something really uncomfortable about the one with the guy's two kids. Like he either had to script/direct a "scene," or lipsync to a song awkwardly with like no context... probably the latter considering the age if the kids
*lights the marriage license on fire* "is it a boy or a girl?"
underrated fr
Lol
I have to say Kurtis’s singing and performances will never disappoint me.
"if you're sad, INTERNALIZE that shit like the rest of us" 👏👏👏
@That Jojo Lesbian there's a huge debate in the self help crowd about which is better, to deal with past trauma or to completely try to forget it and discount it from having any effects on it life by trying to erase it from your mind. To each his own!
Please don’t, seek therapy I know this is hehehe hahah funny but make sure you don’t internalize your trauma
Fun fact: the burning marriage certificate was actually just the one for show, one you can frame and hang on your wall or whatever. It's the actual legal paper the courts ask for.
I love how Kurtis cant make fun of things without making like 9 disclaimers to be less mean, its wholesome
@Despacitoman42 dont be like that man
We stan an unproblematic mayor
It's Canadian.
he is Canadian so it makes sense
Imagine being a musician and checking tik tok to see what your song is being used for and you only see divorce tik toks
There should be a law against parents recording their children's misery. Like, they are forbidden to have children if their brain hasn't matured beyond being an irresponsible teenager.
She gave her the divorce papers... But he couldn't read
6:05 honestly the most brutal part of this entire video is just watching this woman struggle so fucking hard to flip the papers
Man In Happy Relationship Laughs At Sad Divorcées For 15 Minutes
8:23
@Deviency I love this
@in love with a butterfly I desperately want to like this comment but there are 69 likes and that feels deeply rude. So I’ll just drop my like here: 👍
@Zoe White pppp
@nadia S aren't they married?
Sometimes when I'm sad, I re-watch Kurtis' videos and start cracking up before he even delivers the jokes, and then I'm happy again, so thankyou for your service mayor
Well, divorce is what gives a gen z child their power. It's an energy field created by all married couples between the ages of 30-50. It surrounds us and penetrates us; it binds our sadness together.
My dad had an affair with my mom's best friend. My mom filed for divorce and my dad flipped out. He told me that the divorce was her fault. All he wanted was some fun. Sooooo glad there was no social media at that time. My parents would have embarrassed my sister and me, for sure.
@Leilani Milan You are right about the best friend being dragged. I guess it's good for her that I was too traumatized to write a book. hahahahahah-ish
That's crazy, but if they had social media, I feel like your father would've been more of an embarrassment to you guys instead of your mom😭 I also feel like the best friend would've been dragged on social media💀
You know how when you're a toddler you just become conscious one day. Like you'll spawn mentally in the kitchen or grocery store and go sick I'll remember this forever. For the tiktok with the little kid in the back, that's her first conscious memory.
Your skit about the husband finding out about his upcoming divorce through TikTok has the same energy as that one guy who posted “my wife just changed her Facebook status from married to widowed should I be worried”
@Yo Bitch YES
maybe
Yes
I want to see an entire full length concert of just Kurtis photoshopped onto a country singer singing their songs that was the best seven seconds ever
Mee tooo
Can we just talk about how different kurtis’s voice sounds when he’s singing country music lmao
8:16 I did that with the photos of my ex girlfriend when I was 14. I don’t think fully grown adult men should be doing that lmaooo
9:55 i thought it said ‘sometimes two moms are better than one’ and i’m now very upset that it doesn’t
@Talia Godfrey i saw it as the mom being a lesbian lol
If he said two moms are better than one, does that mean he cheated with another woman?
When I was little my parents always talked about how divorce is bad and I should never get divorced cause it’s like a sin I guess.
Then I found out that my mom was my dad’s second wife. He got a divorce before I was born.
@Just Some Werewolf With Internet Access absolutely
divorce should never be counted as a sin :/ if you're unhappy or in danger within your relationship, you should be able to leave.
@Jasper Stevens yeah u can
muslims can get divorced for almost anything we’re so lucky lmao 😭😭
@Jasper Stevens You can get addicted to anything, nothing is off the table.
Im honestly glad my parents separated before I was old enough to remember stuff bc I can see my dad doing some dumbass theatrical shit like this despite it being his fault for the divorce.
Shrek 5: Shrek and Fiona get a divorce, and then Shrek makes a TikTok.
Funny comment but also Shrek would never
I love the idea of saying to a lawyer “um... you heard of tik tok?” because you KNOW it’s happened
3:17 They even wear the same clothes. They must have really loved each other. Never would’ve guessed they would divorce.
As a child of my parents being divorced, grandparents being divorced, and great grandparents being divorced, I can confirm that my entire extended family pulled out their phones simultaneously and filmed a sad tiktok
@Goofster n Gafster eh kangz
Nothing.
@I am h y d r a t i o n Same, haha. My grandma and grandpa are divorced, same with my parents :,)
As someone with divorced parents too, the exact same video happened too. Even better, it was on their anniversary 💖
(the anniversary part is true… they got separated on their anniversary 💀)
@Lance Elliott idk about the commenter, but in my experience (parents divorced, both sets of grandparents divorced, and great-grandparents divorced) I’d say yes. It does help you be cautious and a bit more cynical (If it ever comes to it I’m definitely signing a prenup) but yeah, I’d personally give marriage a try.
You should continue the family tradition 🤪
(in all seriousness, I hope you don’t end up like your family and I hope you find a proper significant other)
Okay, the introduction with the mime joke HAD ME ROLLING 💀 LIKE- THE WAY HE SAID PARENTS WAS TOO DAMN GOOD LMFAO
Is nobody gonna talk about how Kurtis is in thee wrong profession and should totally be singing country songs.
I like to imagine that Kurtis has a folder full of his own song covers
Ahh the classic “I love you. I literally love you so much. You’re a great husband, but- I want a divorce”
“your wife or your husband” cmon kurtis, you know no gays are doing this
@Creature Of Havoc oh!! interesting :0
Yeah cuz straight ppl are weird and gays are not..? Let's not generalize and instead show respect to everyone, don't you think? I feel it's sad that member of minorities react to discrimination by returning the same hostility... that's pointless :/
Fundy
@Creature Of Havoc Tf just happened 9 months ago 😃
Everyone’s arguing here but uh ur profile picture is very poggers✨
“Ugh I’m like stuck inside of this box dude, I hate my parents”
That is content I subscribed for!
Kurtis: "It's very good to see you again."
Me: Don't you mean.... very REALLY good to see you again!!
9:30 - Kurtis does a sketch that literally explains EXACTLY how my divorce went 😅😆🤣😂 #imadebaddecisions
You deserve better
"I'm stuck in this box and I hate my parents."
That is such a mood.
As someone currently going through divorce, 10000% can confirm that divorce tiktoks are NOT the thing to be doing lmao
@Luis Hynes ok
So…. How did it go?
'no good marriage has ever ended in divorce. So don't say sorry; divorce sucks, but it's at least marginally better than the alternative" - Louis C.K.
@A.J. Reed I’m so happy you’re doing better!
@Luis Hynes anything could hurt anyone and it's not their fault.Things that could hurt anyone is different for everyone
I really hope that’s not actually how he told the kids
as someone with divorced parents, i too claim the "making fun of divorce pass"
9:50, Jokes aside though, of my father had propped a camera in front of my face when he told me him and my mom were getting divorced I would've even more upset. Like what the fuck-
I’m going thru a divorce. My husband of almost 10 years cheated on me… while I was pregnant with our 4th baby. But I moved onward and upward! Everything happens for a reason!
Survive and THRIVE! Whoo!
You got this queen all the love to you!!
I love how he comes in during editing to make a joke he forgot to make during filming. What a dork, 11/10.
i love him lmfao
Why does this comment have only 3 replies!!!??!!?
It’s why we keep coming back.
The biggest dork, and I love him for it, all of Kurtistown does
Super duper dork
as someone who grew up in the south and listened to lots country music as a kid, hearing kurtis sing these songs is genuinely so funny
When the one with the daughters started rolling I had to cover my face with my hands from second-hand embarassment. Can you fucking imagine walking up to your child and asking them to be in your divorce TikTok video. Dear Lord.
Making tiktoks after a divorce is the easiest way to let everyone know you’re back on the market 😂😂 they can now quench their thirst with your single drip! Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.
Lol 🤣🤣🤣
"Divorce ruins relationships" Really!? I had no idea
I like how this country boy doesn’t even have his flag folded right at 4:56
"hey, pardner, where'd ur marriage certificate go?"
*"i burned it for a tik tok"*
The five stages of a divorce
Denial
Anger
Kurtis Conner videos
Depression
Acceptance
"love is a thing that happens, and its like the best part of being alive"
*uncomfortable aromantic noises*
I think he also ment like platonic love or loving SMTH you do
I need a Spotify playlist full of Kurtis' country song covers
bet
i want it rn
@S Mathews u can like now bro
We need it to be 6.9k likes
That’s not a want- THATS A NEED
Imagine going to your custody hearing and your ex wife plays your divorce tiktoks in court 😭😭😭
I enjoy the use of Shrek as an example of romantic love, it genuinely is an excellent example.
It's not right to weaponize your kids... 🤦🏽♀️
I had something similar on fyp it was a man saying his wife took the kids and the dog and left him and people felt bad for him, but his daughter brought proof that he cheated on the mom and was abusive.
your jokes will always be stupid but will never be unfunny
True dat
100%
Always unfunny, but the effort is appreciated, usually
if i ever wanna divorce secretly and surprise my wife with that im were going to the fair having my best friend secretly tape us as i take her straight to the ring toss booth and be like "were THREW", then throw that ring at the ring toss. Savage comedy love kurtis so much.
Just the words "Divorce Tiktok" make me physically laugh
9:18 if someone you’ve loved for a long time comes out to you and says “hey, I’ve been cheating on you for a while and I’m divorcing you to go be with them” I feel like you have a right to be sad about that.
When you love someone by James tw is literally THE song that helped me go through my parent's separation, and hearing in a divorce TikTok somehow makes me feel so.... bad
I should know by now, never eat cereal (or any food for that matter) when watching a Kurtis Conner video...I always end up choking 'cause I burst out laughing XD
Just so you guys know the extra greeting is one hundred percent worth it
@comet oh boy do I have news
He came to my house
Agree
Can confirm
"love is the best part of being alive"
Aromatic people - Guess I'll die
I have Covid and I’ve been binging your videos all day, thank you for making me feel better Mr. Mayor
@Katie F. Tysm! Have a lovely day
i’m sorry that’s happening to you, hope you feel better!
If your partner does a Divorce TikTok Video after being divorced… You have done the right decision
As a person who's been married 3 times... I live for this content 🙌 😌
Oh, we've got divorced by mutual consent, so we had divorce party with the cake that had a lettering "may divorce be with you" on it :)
the good ending ❤️
aww i love that lol
that’s awesome :)
I hope you're both well!
What every divorce is painted as on the internet: a horrible tragedy that breaks everyone's heart and ruins families forever
What (some) divorces are actually like:
imagine explaining this video to a person from the medieval times
I think it’s so funny to imagine them throwing the ring for the tiktok and then as soon as it stops recording they’re like “fucking shit that’s expensive” and immediately scramble around to pick it up
Kurtis! I love you!! I love a feminist man!!! You’re so very right! 9 times out of 10 women do feel like they literally broke out of prison! & men are generally sad & you’re so right... it’s bc they’re usually the problem.
Straight up Kurtis’ rendition of Breaking up in a small town is 100x better than the actual song
I just love the idea of them setting up their cameras and standing there waiting for the timer to count down and walking away after throwing the ring at the camera and waiting for it to stop recording, then going back and picking up their phone and doing all the stuff you do before you post it. Like that's the funniest part about it all I think.
“Oh shoot the ring didn’t hit the camera right *redo*”
@Hecate Blythe Don’t let one miserable petty make you feel bad . If you love what you do that’s all that matters ! Techno PLcliprs are just as cringey if you put it that way. It’s ok keep doing you 🌻
And trying again and again if they don't like what they recorded 💀
@Hecate Blythe shoutout😩🥵🥴
@Unique West lmao rip me having 4K on tiktok cause I post dumb shit and I always feel stupid setting up my camera for it 😔
neither of my parents made a tiktok during their divorce. not only their marriage failed but ig their chances of being tiktok famous did too.
(their divorce wasnt messy or anything and we're all v happy the way it is,,, dont take it the wrong way lmao, its a joke :))
what makes me giggle is the fact that they all just toss their rings for a video and have to go pick it back up when they're done or have to do a retake🤣🤣🤣
watching this as someone w divorced parents makes it a whole lot funnier
I remember watching this like 2 years ago and thinking nothing of it, now my parents broke up and Kurtis saying how its tough to me kinda hit hard
My parents are getting a divorce and they haven’t made a Tik tok yet 😔 should I be concerned?
Not at all! This actually means that they're gonna get back together, and you should absolutely assume that will happen. If they tell you otherwise, internalise the idea that they're lying. That'll work 🙂
hailey bradley thx for telling us your age and your year that u were born! 😁
Thanos ru ok?
Call the police. This is code red
I like how he puts more and more effort into each song cover
Lol imagine being in a relationship 😂
I was watching dumb Reddit videos and before the extra greeting I was smiling so darn big, your videos are so awesome
Kurtis’s cover of NF with a southern accent was something I didn’t know I needed.
Requirements for being a pop punk mime:
1. Stuck inside of box
2. Hates parents
@Narnia Why are you stuck inside a box??
3. Talks
it me
3. Looks like a mime.
3: Heartbroken by a girl you didn't actually date
