I don’t know about all cultures that practice arranged marriages, but I know that in Pakistan marriages are often arranged between cousins (of various degrees, including first cousins.)

If that’s not “family pressure not to divorce,” I don’t know what is. You’d be pretty much stuck with your ex in your life forever anyway.
