Is a husband's message to his wife's father stating "your daughter is divorced" considered a second divorce, after he had already divorced his wife by saying "you are divorced"?

If the husband intended, by writing the message, to initiate a new divorce, then it is a second divorce. However, if he was informing about a previous divorce and did not intend to initiate another divorce, then it is not counted as a divorce.
