WATCH: Couple's Adorable Take On Weight Gain In Marriage

Is a spouse's weight gain grounds for divorce?

New York magazine sparked a buzzy debate last week with a profile on couples who have dealt with weight issues during their relationships.

We put the question to HuffPost Divorce's Facebook and Twitter followers last week to mixed reactions on both sides of the issue. On Thursday, HuffPost Live did the same, asking viewers if a spouse's weight gain is justification to end a marriage. Watch the video above for one hilarious (and adorable!) couple's take.
