Don’t fear for the child growing up without a father. Her grandfather or uncle can be a similar figure in her life if her mother is unable to remarry. Fear for her if she has to grow up with the toxic paternal side, especially seeing her mother reduced to a paycheck within the family. She will internalise that feeling over the years and her sense of self-worth will be really distorted. A child needs a family to behave as a family; if her father is willing to abandon her over what he feels about her mother (and it is deeply misogynistic), he will only be too comfortable to abandon her and her mother later in life also at the first hint of them not toeing his line.
The lady in question must be counselled to make up her mind, that she has personhood and agency irrespective of her marital status. And perhaps can meet a better person later in life. Even if she doesn’t, she can be happy and independent away from the sub-standard husband and his third rate family
