Do the traditional wedding vows "for better, for worse" imply that all parties remain even in the event one must endure a stint of imprisonment?

For instance, from a religious perspective: do you believe Derek Chauvin's wife was obligated to stay by her husband's side despite the outcome?

Was she wrong or smart for divorcing him given the possible legal ramifications of his situation (e.g. possible loss of assets from a civil suit)?

I don't believe anyone is obligated to stay in a situation that's toxic, dangerous, or unhappy for them. Marriage doesn't need to be a life sentence and we don't know how bad their marriage was before that. I suspect if she felt he was a good guy she would have stood by him
