I have a friend of mine who is seriously in a relationship with an annulled man.In fact they have 2 children right now and they were not eve married yet.The problem now is that my friend was asking for an advise if the relationship she's in would have a blessed family in the future.Her partner don't even mentioned about marriage at all.What should I advise to her because on my part I don't have an idea about annulment and divorce marriage.

In annulment, the marriage is considered null and void. Some marriage requirement may not have been fulfilled or there's something illegal in their marriage. The court do not recognize their marriage. On the other hand, in divorce, the court ends a legal and biding marriage on a specific date.

An annulment declares that the marriage never actually happened... that due to some impediment existing prior to or at the exchange of vows the sacrament of holy matrimony did not occur. A divorce is the disolvement of a civil contract.
