Yes, I understand the NOK argument, based on the fact the two were legally married at some point in the past. The question is: at what point is that marriage abrograted by the behavior of the husband? Doesn't siring two children with his current common-law wife raise some legal uestions too? Doesn't his relationship border on bigamy, which is a crime?

There is no such thing as common law divorce. One spouse must sue for divorce. Florida, IIRC, has no common law marriage, and even if it did, you can't enter into a common law marriage if you are already married. There is no such thing as common law bigamy.
