Answer 1

Maybe her actions have something to do with the divorce.  I suggest counselling to help.  Maybe they have nothing to do with each other.  Give her a consquence: like tell her that if she doesn't stop acting this way, you won't hang out with her for whatever days.  If she talks bad about every girl that walks by, have you ever wondered if she talks bad about you behind your back?  Basically, I think this problem should go to the counsellor

Answer 2

You can’t help her she needs counselling. This seems like an emotional thing going on in her head not a Logical thing. Emotions have a life of there own for some people there hard to control. Keep your distance you don’t want to get yourself in trouble. That doesn’t help anyone. She needs counselling in my humble opinion.
