Naturalisation isn't a visa - as a British citizen you can arrange your personal life as you wish.
If you were in a bona fide marriage at the time you applied there shouldn't be any issue.
Divorce doesn't have to be reported to the Home Office, whether you are naturalised or a native citizen.

Thank you so much, i also plan on remarrying and sponsoring someone right after getting divorced. Do you think this woulld have any impact on spouse visa application for my future wife ? Do you think it's wise to leave sometime after divorce before applying ?

Well, you have to be British (or Irish) or hold ILR to sponsor.
What counts is that you/wife can comply with the requirements.

As far as your divorce will have come through I don't see an issue with that.
