Pre settled status - Relationship with EU citizen ending in divorce

Hello,

Thank you in advance for your help.

My partner is an EU citizen exercising her treaty rights in the UK and was granted pre-settled status in 2019.

I am New Zealand citizen & UK resident and was granted pre-settled status with a biometric residence card. We have been married and living in the UK for just over 4 years.

Unfortunately our relationship has dissolved and my partner would like to divorce. My partner will move away from the UK. I understand I must notify the Home Office of the divorce once it is finalised. What are my options to be able retain my residency in the UK?

Thanks,
C_S
