So, besides breaking the law of fealty, he is breaking a bigamy statute?

No, common law marriages are not recognized in Florida if they were not established BEFORE 1968. He can't be charged with bigamy. If he lived in Georgia with this girl then after 7 years they would have had a common law marriage. He has been with her for seven years so in at least one state, and I think at least 13 others, they would be considered married, but not in Florida.
