Yes.
If the Catholic man's ex spouse was living he could not get married in the church, unless the marriage was decreed invalid and annulled. However, if the ex spouse dies, death ends the marriage ( until death do us part) and he is free to remarry in the Catholic Church

∙ 8y agoIn Catholic theology there is no such thing as "divorce", only a civil divorce for extreme circumstances. Thus the Catholic man in your example was still married as long as his wife was alive, even if they were divorced; but with her death, he is now a widower and free to marry.

No. However, it would be possible if the previous marriage were annulled by the Catholic Church. This would be easier if the previous marriage was not within the Catholic Church.

Can you marry in a Catholic Church in Italy you are divorced but did not marry in a Catholic Church?
If you are divorced, you CANNOT marry in any Catholic church anywhere in the world. In the Catholic church's eye, you are still married once you are divorced. Therefore, you are committing adultery by remarrying.If you want to remarry, you should get an annulment. This completely erases the former marriage.If you are divorced, baptized Catholic, and were not married in a Catholic church or marriage not validated by a Catholic priest, but were married in a civil ceremony or a non Catholic Church, then you CAN be married in a Catholic Church, with proper dispensation. You shouild see a priest in this case; otherwise you need an annullment.Roman Catholic AnswerThe above answer is a little confused, if you have been married and are divorced, then you are still married in the eyes of the Church and can not get married again unless your first spouse dies. If there was some defect with the first marriage AND IT WAS NOT VALID IN THE FIRST PLACE, then you can get an annulment which is nothing more than the Church's declaration that the first attempted marriage never took place validly. The Church has no power to "completely erase" any valid marriage. If your marriage was valid, then you will be denied an annulment. In the last case mentioned above, you were a Catholic but did not marry in front of a priest, then you did not fulfuill the requirements for a valid marriage, and your attempted marriage could be annulled.

your marriage outside of the Catholic church is invalid due to improper form. your 1st marriage in the church nullified it.
