This is 100% a data-driven fact. It can't apply to everyone, but it's a really great average.

Those who wait until after 25 have a 25% chance of not getting divorced.

The way you phrased it is not quite what the study says.

They're not "25% likely of not divorcing" (which would mean there's a 75% chance of divorce).

They're "25% less likely of divorcing"
