First of all if there is a divorce, wife should be asked to move out of the matrimonial home immediately otherwise she may charge the husband of rape and s*xual molestation and even file police complaint in this regard, secondly even a divorced wife seek maintenance u/s 125Cr.P.C but the first condition thereis that she should have no means to support or mainatain herself that you said is that she is working hence has means to mainatain herself, her case becomes weak on this ground itself.
