If you are divorced from your previous spouse who got the house and your name is still on the mortgage how responsible are you for the debt when it goes into foreclosure?

The home is simply collateral for the loan. Regardless of what happens to the vesting of the property (legal ownership) you are still liable for the loan. If a court awarded the home to a spouse, the loan should have been refinanced into their name. If that did not occur your liability for the loan has not changed.
