You may still be legally married. You need to obtain proof that there was a divorce (default, I guess, since you were not involved) through a Dissolution of Marriage document or something like that.
If you are still married, you will not be considered legally married to your new spouse. You will have to obtain a divorce from your first spouse and then remarry your second spouse.
Best of luck to you!

You could/should file for divorce, where here or there. If you have property or debt together, you may need to file in Morocco. If you have no property or debts to worry about, you could file here.
