I just found out from the Captain and Tennille web site that the Captain (Daryl Dragon) of the Captain and Tennille has a Parkinson-Like Disease that prevents him from playing the keyboards.
The news was announced a few months ago but somehow I had missed it. I posted the news here in case others like myself missed the announcement as well.

First Linda Ronstadt & now Daryl Dragon-My prayers go out to Toni Tennille at this difficult time.

Maybe this just was too much for Toni Tennille to handle. Darryl Dragon (The Captain) doesn't understand why they're divorcing.

Prevents him from playing the keyboards? Can he still sing?

Prevents him from playing the keyboards? Can he still sing? That may not matter, as to my knowledge he never sang (I only know the hits.) But looking at the impact that Parkinson's has had on well known voices such as Linda Ronstadt and Casey Kasem, a similar illness may be hurting his voice as well.

Prevents him from playing the keyboards? Can he still sing? From what I heard, he can no longer play the keyboards. Must be very tough.

To be Devil's Advocate, there may be a not-so-malicious intent to her starting divorce proceedings if there are mutual advantages (like preservation of an estate) to be gained if Daryl should have to go into long-term care.
