Divorce is a sin. Jesus died for our sins. Which ones aren't covered? I think God will decide her fate.
As for your dating of Christ's return, it may be off by a year or a century or a millennium. But, of course you are welcome to your beliefs.

Paula White just got married to New Zealand rocker Jonathan Cain. He is perhaps best known for his days with the band Journey and Bad English. He sang the classic Journey ballad "Faithfully" and was part of over a dozen other Journey albums.
"What a weekend—Blessed beyond description," she tweeted.
White, a controversial pastor was divorced from her last husband, Randy White, in 2007. White married her first husband, Dean Knight, when she was a teenager. Together, they had a son named Bradley. She divorced Knight after she got saved.
White stirred controversy in 2011 after she was appointed senior pastor of the late Zachery Tims' megachurch, New Destiny Christian Center (NDCC) near Orlando. At the time, White was also senior pastor of Without Walls International Church. She later handed the reigns back to her ex-husband, Randy.
Ugh. What a pandering phoney.
Paula is a strange name for a dude!
As far as the Lord is concerned, Paula White is STILL married to her covenant husband, Dean Knight! Which means she was committing adultery against him when she was married to Randy White for 8 Years [1999 - 2007].
Randy White was also committing adultery against his covenant spouse, the mother of his three children, when he was married to Paula White!
The current marriage of Paula White to twice divorced Jonathan Cain, is also an unlawful one. For she’s still committing adultery against her covenant husband, Dean Knight! While Jonathan Cain is committing adultery against his covenant spouse, Tané McClure!
So many Christians, like Paula White, have no reverence for the Word of God whatsoever! That’s why they completely disregards it’s teaching on this very important issue of the marriage covenant!
The marriage covenant is for life and cannot be broken except by the death of a spouse, then, and only then, is a Christian free to marry again!
A piece of paper signed by a Judge cannot dissolve a covenant marriage either!
All 2nd, 3rd or 4th marriages, entered into while the covenant spouse is alive, are abominations before God!
“Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery against her. And if a woman divorces her husband and marries another, she commits adultery.” [Mark 10:11,12]
“For the woman who has a husband is bound by the law to her husband as long as he lives. But if the husband dies, she is released from the law of her husband. So then if, while her husband lives, she marries another man, she will be called an adulteress; but if her husband dies, she is free from that law, so that she is no adulteress, though she has married another man.” [Rom.7:3,4]
An affair doesn’t break the covenant of marriage either!
Fornication, and NOT adultery, can only dissolve a betrothal.
“Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.” [Matt.19:9][KJV]
Under Jewish customs, when the Lord walked the earth, a betrothed couple were called husband and wife, even though they hadn’t had sex yet.
If during this period, which lasted for about a Year, the wife had sex with another man it was called fornication, and not adultery.
The husband could “divorce” his wife for committing fornication!
This is what Joseph wanted to do when he thought Mary had committed fornication!
A man cannot remarry lawfully if his wife commits adultery AFTER the marriage has been consummated!
Then he has only TWO options.
Either to separate from her and remain single as long as she’s alive, or forgive her, if she repents, and remain married to her.
He doesn’t have a third option to divorce her in order to marry someone else.
This doctrine is crystal clear in the Word of God, unfortunately, many, like Paula White, are deliberately Choose to ignore it!
They’re under the delusion that as long as they continue to believe that Jesus died on the cross for their sins, they’re free to have sex in an unlawful marriage, with someone other than their covenant spouses.
Unless they repent and come out of these unlawful marriages, they will NOT be ready for the Lord, when He comes to collect His Wife, the Church, on Pentecost, which correctly falls on the 17th of July 2015 [Day 29 Month 4 year 6000]
“Don’t you know that unrighteous people will have no share in the Kingdom of God? Don’t delude yourselves — people who engage in sex before marriage, who worship idols, who engage in sex after marriage with someone other than their spouse, who engage in active or passive homosexuality, who steal, who are greedy, who get drunk, who assail people with contemptuous language, who rob — none of them will share in the Kingdom of God.” [1 Cor.6:9,10][Complete Jewish Bible]
We MUST practice doing good, in order to receive our glorified bodies, this includes being in lawful marriages, as suppose to being in unlawful ones!
“Do not marvel at this; for the hour is coming in which all who are in the graves will hear His voice and come forth—those who have done good, to the resurrection of life...” [John 5:28,29]
“To those who seek glory, honor and immortality by perseverance in doing good, he will pay back eternal life.” [Rom.2:7]
On the Day [17th of July 2017] of the Messiah we must be filled with the fruit of righteousness! We cannot be filled with the fruits of righteousness, if we’re practicing the wickedness of adultery!
“And this is my prayer: that your love may more and more overflow in fullness of knowledge and depth of discernment, so that you will be able to determine what is best and thus be pure and without blame for the Day of the Messiah, filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Yeshua the Messiah...” [Phili.1:9-11][CJB]
