I wonder if some of that nuance is medical debt. If you divorce before the bills come in, can you get away with only the ill person getting the debt? If it's terminal, do you have a way to deny debt collectors by saying you're divorced?
Of course, the gender angle still suggests otherwise, but I imagine that's mostly a breadwinner/power dynamic that hopefully is changing with more women in the workforce.
