A young couple in Wuhan of Hubei Province - the husband aged 23 and the wife 21 - divorced only three days after their wedding ceremony, Chutian Jinbao reports.

The simplification of divorce procedures in the country make it easier for those who want to part but at the same time, make it possible for people to divorce on impulse, said Feng Jihong with Civil Affairs Department in Wuchang District.

Feng cited the example of a young woman who fainted after her divorce came through, saying she regretted her impulsive decision.

She also urged young couples to show more commitment to their marriage.
