Is marrying a woman who used to be a dancer and repented at the hands of the suitor after he compelled her to wear the hijab considered cuckoldry, or is there no problem with it?

Most dancers who display their charms do not escape falling into immorality, and a Muslim is required to choose a righteous wife. If a dancer repents sincerely and her righteousness becomes apparent, there is no harm in marrying her because repentance erases what came before it, and you would not be considered a cuckold for marrying her. However, the relationship with her must be severed immediately until the marriage contract is concluded, because maintaining the relationship with her is forbidden. You must contact her guardian to complete the marriage, as there is no marriage without a guardian.
