My friend said the weekly group dinners stopped because one couple got divorced and the group dinners were collateral damage. What does he mean by this? Google answers aren’t clear.

“Collateral” is used a few different ways but its fundamental meaning is “together with”.

When used with “damage” it means unintended damage caused by an action intended to cause damage to something else.
