Is marrying a second wife considered a breach of a promise made to the wife's family, or does it fall under the principle of "Believers are bound by their conditions, unless it is a condition that forbids what is lawful," in the event that the wife's family caused problems that led to her leaving the home?

The conditions stipulated within the marriage contract itself are valid and binding. As for conditions stipulated after the contract, they are not binding. Therefore, the promise made between the questioner and his wife's family is not binding upon him.
