The word divorce can be a noun or a verb.
'to divorce' and 'to get divorced' may have slightly different meanings but grammatically, it seems that the word divorce is used as a verb in both expressions.

'get divorced' should be 'to become divorced'. The verb 'to divorce' is the process of becoming where as the latter is past tense.
