The phrase "second marriage" refers to a person getting married for the second time after their first marriage has ended, either through divorce or death.
I see many single persons, persons separated and divorced, persons in second marriages, and families with children from two different marriages. (religion-online.org)
Conventional wisdom tells us that we can learn from our mistakes, so just why is the divorce rate as high (if not higher) for second marriages as first marriages? (elitesingles.com)
This, despite the fact that 60 percent of second marriage end in divorce (although I'd be curious to know what percentage of those marriages involve children). (omgchronicles.vickilarson.com)
