Legal Question in Immigration Law in California

I am a US Citizen. My parents are divorced and have not remarried since. They are in good terms now and I would like to petition I-130 for both of them.

Is the situation complicated or just filing I-130 seperately be fine?

Should I ask them to "remarry" , which they would be fine with if it makes the process any easier..
