You could have applied as soon as you had 3 years residence (before divorce) if you were married to a British Citizen. But now you can't unless you are married again to another British Citizen.

Now that you are divorced, you will have to wait until you have 5 years residence so you will only qualify in 2017 if you entered the UK in 2012.
