Then Rome should be ok with married priests or single priests who want to marry. If it was good enough for Peter and the disciples.....
Rome is OK with married priests in the Eastern Churches; the celibacy is in the Latin Rite (Ukrainian Catholic priests, for example, can be married). As I understand it, in the Eastern Rites higher positions aren’t open to married priests.
There is no description in Scriptures as to what happens to the abandoned wives/families of those Apostles that followed Jesus; all but John died as martyrs.
