I think it’s foolish to automatically turn away such a shidduch. I do think it to be very prudent, and your right, to find out PERTINENT (not nosey) information about the divorce. Was either spouse abusive to the other or to the children, are both parents on the same page regarding their children, how involved is the non-custodial parent in the lives of the children, will the parents contribute towards the wedding and/or some support of the couple (if that is their mehalach), etc. These are all factors that can affect the child of that family, and thus affect the person coming INTO that family dynamic.
