If she is divorced..... She can call herself Catholic but, she can't take communion.
The is factually untrue. A divorced Catholics may receive Holy Communion if they do not remarry, or if they remarry and their previous marriage is annulled by the Catholic Church. It's likely quite difficult to prove whether or not Ms Habba had her previous marriage annulled without her making a public disclosure on the matter. We should therefore assume nothing about this matter unless/until proof has been found.
Additionally, only God can determine whether an individual in a state of grace. This means that neither ordained Catholic Clergy nor a lay Eucharistic Minister (EM) is capable of determining whether a person is in a state of grace, and as such may not deny Holy Communion to any individual who presents themself to be communed. However, a communicant may be denied if they were (1) publicly excommunicated or interdicted for a grave canonical crime, or (2) determined to obstinately persevere in manifest grave sin.
Overall, this issue far more nuanced than any divorced Catholic cannot receive Holy Communion.
Which doesn't make her "Very Religious".
I would concur that such language could be Peacock but the assessment made is her own.
The Bloomberg article cited is behind a paywall but the
BNN Bloomberg mirror site is not and states,
Habba, a Catholic who describes herself as 'very religious'. The statement in the wiki appears factually correct as that is indeed how Ms. Habba described herself, despite what others may or many not believe her religiosity to be.
I would further suggest that your comment is making an assumption that being "very religious" has a moral component. However, one can assume those conducting
Religious terrorism are seen by themselves and others as being very religious. I only use this example to highlight the extreme variability of the description, and does not imply that Ms Habba is a terrorist.

request edit
This
edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered.
Request to replace "Matthew T. Eyet" with "Gregg Reuben" as 'Spouse' in infobox about Alina Habba.
Additional request to replace "Habba met Matthew T. Eyet in law school and they married on September 10, 2011 in Summit, New Jersey. The couple has two children and live in Bernardsville, New Jersey." within the 'Personal Life' section with "Habba and Eyet became legally divorced in December 2019. Alina Habba has since remarried Gregg Reuben in 2020 and the couple lives in Bernardsville, New Jersey."
Citations:
"Who is the Iraqi lawyer in the eye of the latest Donald Trump legal storm?" The Kampala Report. April 5, 2023. Retrieved May 4, 2023.
The suggested wording states "Alina Habba has since remarried Gregg Reuben..." Unless the subject was previously married to Reuben, this wording is not accurate. Please advise. Spintendo00:47, 28 June 2023 (UTC)reply
The citation on that statement when it was added was the Washington Post article from Fahrenthold, David A.; Crites, Alice. It lists three cases that she's been involved in prior to her work for Trump.
The statement was added by
Kiran891 as part of a large commit early in the page history. I would suggest striking that language.
