Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

I was married in India and then my wife came over to the US and we got married in the US as well; after a couple of months we separated as she went back to India. We have mutually agreed to get a divorce in India (uncontested and mutually agreeable). Will the Indian divorce decree be recognized in the US (to change my US married status or divorce status) or do I need to file for a uncontested divorce here in the US? Please help!

If you and she agree to be divorced in India, then the United States will recognize the divorce.
