Married and awaiting his G-card, but proposing for marriage claiming 1st relationship is over.

I was currently introduced to a bro. who has been married to an Muslim-American for 10yrs. they have 2kids together. It has been 2yrs that their relationship has not been in good terms so he decided to move out of the house and into an apartment of his own. I have checked with the imam of his area and they say that he is a decent guy and that he has been living apart from his wife but they haven’t gotten any divorce. When I say they haven’t gotten a divorce I mean it in an Islamic and legal sense.

Muslim woman who left to finish her education and married someone else?

I’d like to find out what does Islam say about a Muslim woman, who is married and has a valid Nikah in presence of more than 100 guests, but the final wedding ceremony was not fulfilled because the woman in question is a Ph.D. student and she needed to finish her education before the wedding.
