The rules state that "(ii) any previous marriage or civil partnership (or similar relationship) by either partner has permanently broken down; and" so it may be possible to apply for an unmarried partner visa even if she is still married to someone else. But were they living together in the UK? If so was she legally here? If she wasn't that may cause her problems going down that route.
