Your friend should schedule an appointment with a local attorney who handles Virginia domestic relations matters with whom he can discuss his situation and who can advise him on how he might best proceed in his particular situation, including securing any orders preliminary to divorce involving child custody and visitation that might be appropriate (and which would also prohibit the unilateral and summary removal of the child from the state by the mother).
