But unless your friend was an asshole, he/she wouldn't announce it like a big event you should be excited about.

Your friend would tell you the same way Facebook would tell you: in passing (either in your feed or your facebook notifications).

In fairness, for things like "engaged" or "married" Facebook promotes the heck out of those events making them very much a "big event you should be excited about".

If you're a decent human being, you should be happy for a past partner celebrating an important moment in their life. If they're happy, would you not be happy for them?
