- The divorce has meant airing their clean/dirty laundry in court.

Q1. Does this sentence mean the same thing either with 'clean' or with 'dirty'?

Q2. Please tell me the meaning(s) of this sentence.

Thanks.

{The expression is: airing their dirty laundry. It means to tell all the nasty/unflattering things about themselves that they would normally not want anybody to know).
