The UKBA is not interested in your personal preferences and will not judge you on this except where deception or false representation has been used to acquire British citizenship amongst other criteria.

There are two scheme. Naturalisation through spouse of British citizen where residency requriments is 3 years+ you are holding valid ILR and standard requirements is 5 years residency+ last 1 year ILR status. As you remarried it means your first marriage is over legally. So ofcourse you can apply under AN6(1) which is 5 years residency+ last 1 year ILR and if your new spouse is British citizen then you need only last 3 years residency proved with all other general requrirements. A divorce doesnt mean anything about good or bad character. So you have 100 percent chance of success if you fullfill other requirements. Hope that answer the question.
