While I am Catholic, and do not believe in divorce, generally, I have far less of an issue with someone who gets a divorce because they want to pursue a different love interest versus someone who has an affair.
This guy is just another phony “family values” hypocrite, like so many Republican politicians.
Im not excusing his cheating. A proper response to a spouse that abandons the marriage is divorce. However, not all men can afford the divorce courts.
