Is the wife considered divorced after the husband discovers her communication with others, despite him suspending the third divorce upon a specific condition, and her repeated denials of violating the condition, with evidence proving her violation?

As long as the wife denies having committed the act upon which her divorce was conditioned, her statement is to be given credence. The article in which the wife's acknowledgment of the conditioned act was found is not conclusive proof. The fundamental principle is the continuation of the marital bond and the non-occurrence of divorce, because divorce does not take effect with doubt. The husband must block avenues of temptation for his wife, and she must obey him in what is right and be cautious of the dangers of the Internet.
