She cannot lawfully marry you without divorcing her husband. The marriage, without divorce, would be illegal. She may also be prosecuted for bigamy, if marry you without taking divorce. Your best bet is for her to first take divorce and then marry you, be it may temple or otherwise
there can be no second marriage without divorce.
No. You CANNOT. If you do, he may seek your criminal prosecution for adultery. She should first seek divorce.
