A 30 year study has revealed those who work in industries dominated by the opposite sex are more likely to have a divorce.

People working in the hotel and restaurant sectors had the highest rate of divorce, while farmers and librarians were the least likely.

Lead author of the study Caroline Uggla told Kate Hawkesby that the results varied depending on what industry you worked in.

"Having individuals who worked around you who were from the the opposite sex did impact divorce rates."
