Question:
Hello
Is it considered Loshon Harah to say that someone got divorced?
If it depends on context, then what if it's just mentioned in conversation, is that LH?
In what contexts would it be considered LH ?
Thank you
Answer:
Hello,
It depends on the context in which it is said. If you are informing the other person to let him know that this person now needs a shidduch, then it is fine. However, if it is just to let people know that this person is now a “garush,” or in a negative context, then it would be lashon hora.
Best wishes
