Will Divorce after ILR affect Citizenship application

Hi,

I have received ILR 6 months back while I was dependent on my husband for 5 years. We would like to apply for a divorce and want to understand if this will affect me or my son's UK citizenship application in another 6 months time?

Thanks!

Perhaps worth pointing out that once you hold ILR you are no longer a "dependent" under the immigration rules.
And certainly for citizenship there's no dependent concept.
