Hi there
Please see below the blue highlighted words relevant to your concern, the UK authorities interprets the regulations based on that EU national must be exercising treaty rights on the date of the lawful termination of the marriage which equals the date of decree absolute, it is one of the horrible things one need to prove that their separated partner must be exercising treaty rights during the divorce process which is totally unfair because it gives the opportunity to the EU separated partner to damage the non eu separated partner's immigration status in a very easy way.
What about your situation?

Please see a reply from the Air center about the same issue you are concerned:


Divorce: Based on Article 13(2) of the Directive, if a non-EEA national stops being the family member of an
EEA national through divorce or the dissolution of a civil partnership, the non-EEA national can retain her/his
residence rights in certain circumstances:
 if the marriage or civil partnership lasted at least three years, including at least one year in the UK; or
 if the non-EEA national has custody of the EEA national’s children; or
 there have been particularly difficult circumstances such as domestic violence; or
 if the non-EEA national has a right of access to children in the UK.
In those cases, after divorce the non-EEA national must be self-sufficient (with comprehensive sickness
insurance – see below), or be working or self-employed, until completing a total of five years’ residence, at
which point (s)he will acquire permanent residence. For cases falling under Article 13(2) of the Directive, a
divorce (or termination of the civil partnership) must have taken place in order for the non-EEA national to retain
his/her residence rights. Additionally, the UK authorities take the view that the EEA national must have been
exercising his/her Treaty rights in the UK on the date of the divorce. If you are in this category, we recommend
you get legal advice from the AIRE Centre or elsewhere.
If you have trouble proving that your EEA-national family member was exercising Treaty rights, the Home
Office have indicated that they will sometimes make their own enquiries. If you are dealing with a benefits
matter, the benefits authorities must make their own enquiries about whether your EEA-national family member
has been exercising Treaty rights if you are unable to prove this.

A person with a permanent right of residence under regulation 15 shall not become a (dependent) family member who has retained the right of residence..............this is a common sence.PR not depends on ROR.

A person or a family member who has retained the right of residence shell loose the retain rights status when he/she acquire the status of permanent rights of residence.Again common sence.after retain rights of residence,next stage is PR.And after PR he/she will not under ROR.

Make any sence?
