As important as it is to keep one's commitments, it is unrealistic to expect some people to keep their commitments under certain circumstances. Of course, each family should decide how to best handle the situation for their best interests.
There is nothing wrong with the man divorcing his wife so that he can seek happiness elsewhere. After all, if he remains trapped in the marriage, both he and his wife, and the children as a result, will all be unhappy.
Happiness must come first, because love cannot possibly survive without the foundation of happiness to support it. As much as religious people like to pretend at reality with faith, faking happiness is just as detrimental in the long run.
