When Roman Catholics enter a marriage, it is without intention of divorce and is a permanent commitment for life. Should divorce happen, the Catholic is not free to remarry unless the marriage is proven invalid by the church through the annulment process. The Catholic may still receive the sacraments.

Catholic AnswerRoman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is never used by the Catholic Church..
Sometimes a divorce is recommended in instances where there needs to be a legal separation between a husband and a wife, this is something that you should consult your confessor or pastor about. However, as noted above, a divorced person is not free to marry, the divorce is only obtained for another purpose, such as protected a wife from an abusive relationship.

How do Catholics divorce?
Divorce does not exist within the Roman Catholic Church, but Catholics can apply for an annulment. If the marriage is deemed to have been invalid, it is declared null. The advantage of an annulment is that the Catholic is recognized to have never validly contracted marriage and is therefore free to marry. In most countries, Catholics can obtain a divorce from the secular authorities, without reference to the Church. A divorce allows the Catholic to remarry under law, and is usually required whether or not an annulment is obtained from the Church. Even if the Catholic does not obtain an annulment, a secular divorce allows him or her to remarry, but not in a Catholic church. However, it is important to remember that the Catholic Church will not formally recognise this marriage.
