- Married: A person who is legally united in marriage with another individual.
- Divorced: An individual who has legally ended their marriage through a divorce or dissolution process.
- Widowed: Someone whose spouse has passed away, resulting in the termination of the marriage.
- Separated: A status indicating that a married couple is living apart but has not legally dissolved their marriage.
- Civil Partnership or Domestic Partnership: A legally recognized relationship similar to marriage, available in some jurisdictions, often granting similar rights and responsibilities as married couples.
