Dear St_Thomas_Aquinas,

It's a fairly short article after the jump. You might want to take a look.

However, I'll provide the spoiler. The couple, married before she converted, have submitted to the tribunal for a declaration of nullity, and the author states explicitly that she will abide the by judgment of the tribunal.

Thus, she is in a state of ambiguity, reasonably having the subjective view that her first marriage was not valid, but not yet having received a declaration of nullity. In my own opinion, she shows good faith in her approach to the matter of the sacraments.

And she's abstaining from Communion prior to the ruling of the tribunal, so there's no problem.

I was talking about the general case of a divorced and remarried Catholic, without a declaration of nullity, and the reception of Communion.
