There is no chance to get maintenance by husband from her divorced wife. Even married husband cannot claim such maintenance. If marriage was not consummated, it was a nullity which already have broken by way of divorce hence such question has lost relevant now.

Though the husband can claim for alimony pendente lite under the marriage act from his wife if she is more capable,in this particular case the husband having already got the divorce he looses such right.
A marriage that is not consummated is not a marriage at all. Question of divorce does not arise. When the marriage is a nullity, maintenance is a dream.
