More Baby Boomers are living alone. One reason why: ‘gray divorce’
Rising divorce rates for people over 50 are one reason why an increasing number of older Americans are living alone.
The number of older Americans living alone is on the rise. Nearly 16 million people aged 65 and older in the US lived solo in 2022, three times as many who lived alone in that age group in the 1960s. And as Baby Boomers age, that number is expected to grow even more, raising big questions about the country’s future.

Boomers sure love their "I hate my wife" jokes but now that they finding out that treating people like shit is biting them in the ass.
"My kids don't talk to me"
What the fuck?
P.S. The jokes you are referring to were predominantly a greayest/silent generation thing.
The jokes they're referring to are very much a boomer thing as well. The ol' ball and chain, that sort of stuff is prevalent. Just take a look at any of the "boomer humour" communities and you'll see what I mean.
Not many of the silent generation posting shit memes to Facebook.
