Assuming the couple was legally married to start out, then no length of separation can cause a divorce. To be divorced the couple would have to file divorce in the state where one of them has resided for at least six months.
I don't know though. Sounds like the couple found a way to make their marriage last.

Once you are legally married, you remain so until one spouse dies, or a court with proper jurisdiction says your divorced. On other words, your still married.
