Re: divorce
If she was married at the time you had your wedding, then you aren't married to her now, and you can happily go on your way and forget about her. Your wedding was invalid.
However, just to avoid any problems in the future, I usually tell my clients in your situation to file for an annulment. That way, you have a court order to prove that you were never married to her. For instance, if you hit the lottery next year, you don't want her popping up and saying, "Guess what, I'm claiming we're still married, and I want half the money!"
