But if now due to not having good relationship if ILR holder divorce the EU national then whether the divorcing EU national may affect the naturalizations application? After how long in above scenario the naturalizations can be applied??

Once you get ILR you are treated independently and it makes no difference on what basis you got ILR.

Experts can tell you more but as far as I know should be able to apply for naturalization when you have spent at least 12 months on ILR provided you meet other criteria. Relationships break all the time, since you now have ILR this should have no affect on your naturalization application.

zeusmagnanimous is correct, once 12 months completed on ILR, you can apply for Naturalisation. Please click here for other requirements etc. Good luck.
