Retirement tax questions

Thank you so much for you help. Here is my worry. 

if I file separate and the divorce date is Dec 31st 2021 will I have to pay taxes as single for this whole year? My purpose of filing jointly was so I didn’t get screwed in my taxes. Right now my form is married with dependanrts so they don’t take out much in taxes. If I were to say single the whole year it would mean I would owe over 10k in taxes. I guess my question is what do I put so I don’t get destroyed in my taxes
