divorceable
Marriage can end
Divorceable describes a marriage that can legally be dissolved, or a spouse from whom one can obtain a divorce.
The word appears mainly in legal contexts discussing grounds for divorce: Adultery made the marriage divorceable under state law.
Informally, it can describe a spouse whose behavior might justify divorce: His gambling habit made him eminently divorceable.
