It seems like the article is actually directly contradicting that.

I'm going to trust the sources I've read my info from more than this one that I've never heard of.

That and a quick Google search of "middle ages divorce by combat" sites multiple sources with that exact picture claiming what I said to be the accurate one

Did you read the article? This manuscript was made after divorce by combat stopped.
