The Philippine govt has to except the law of other countries. Just like other countries have to accept the law of the Philippines.

If she is divorced there..... well its what it says divorced. You can't get divorced in PI.....but you can get divorced and she won't be done for bigamy back here. Thousands of pinoys get divorced overseas and return and get married again.

If a Filipino national files for divorce in another country (as the petioner), his or her divorce will not be recognized in the Philippines.

The Family Code of The Philippines.
Where a marriage between a Filipino citizen and a foreigner is validly celebrated and a divorce is thereafter validly obtained abroad by the alien spouse capacitating him or her to remarry, the Filipino spouse shall have capacity to remarry under Philippine law

My ex did the petitioning, and now has re-married (I didn't see why I should have to pay), so she's a bigamist ?

She also had British Citizenship/Naturalisation (before her second marriage).
I wonder how that effects things in the Phils.

You'd need to review the Family Code and other statutes if you want to confirm.

THE ONLY WAY TO FIND OUT IS, PAY SOMEONE U KNOW TO GET YOU A COPY OF CENOMAR (certificate of no marriage) it can be a relative of her to apply for it, and if she did not finalize it and file in NSO her divorce with u, it will show in that certificate that she is still married to u! by then she is considered as bigamist!!! i reckon her marriage with u still exist in phil NSO,, by the way did u marry in phils\?
