Is a man permitted to divorce his wife if she and her parents are divulging his personal secrets in an attempt to compel him to divorce, while the wife claims she wishes to continue the marriage?

It is not permissible for the wife's parents or the wife herself to disclose the secrets of marital life or to strive to separate the spouses, for this is among the reprehensible acts and corruption. The husband is advised to be patient and try to stop them from doing so by seeking the mediation of good and wise people to explain the bad consequences of these actions and of divorce, especially when there are children.
