Yes, we have people whose spouse divorced them and married someone else. The Church would have this person never have sexual relations again. There are no options if the person doing the divorcing has no interest in going through the process of annulment.

And just BTW, in the US, annulments are really Catholic divorces. They are common, and are given to folks who don't meet the Church's recommendations. So, the Church has made accommodations to couples who are willing to go through the process and have the cooperation of both.

BOTTOM LINE
For me, in the US, this issues isn't about the sanctity of marriage. Annulments are much too easy to get for that to be the case.
