The fundamental principle is that the marriage remains, and this is a certainty that cannot be removed except by a certainty of equal strength. Doubt does not affect it. Marital inviolability remains in effect unless the opposite is proven. Therefore, whoever doubts their divorce is not bound by its ruling, because the marriage is established by certainty and cannot be annulled by doubt.
