Annulments are only required for a valid marriage which is still in existence.
Newt’s first wife is dead, so that marriage no longer is a problem.
His second marriage was done while the first wife was alive. It was not a valid marriage.
Only his third marriage is valid. No annulment is necessary, but I am certain he has had to confess his sins and has been instructed on the marriage sacrament and his reponsibilities to remain faithful.
I am not a canon law expert, but I have heard enough explanations on various programs that I am pretty certain I am correct.
Thank you- withdrawn- you sound correct here.
I’m pretty lame on validity of marriages as such are rife everywhere and I can’t admit it, can I, for almost all co-workers and guests to my parent’s house would be sleeping together illegally- so I choose to stay blind!
