He is a married man until he divorces.
To answer your next question, he can file for divorce in the USA. If he lives in Texas he must be a residence of Texas at least 6 months and live in the same county at least 90 days.
If you live in the Houston area, please give me a call at 713-847-6000 to discuss the price for a divorce.
Best of luck!
