Vanilla's quite correct about the commonly-quoted 50% figure for divorces, but it's a bit hard to glean from the ABS figures she links to. A more nuanced figure is that around 1 in 3 first marriages will end in divorce, and that figure increase to about 2 in 3 for second marriages (http://www.relationships.com.au/advice).

Overall, the figure's more like 40%, and currently declining.
