According to Jesus it was straight up, per his words. Anything other than that is a distortion of his words.There is quite a bit more discussion out there than just sexual immorality in the bible but that's quite a long discussion.
The catholic church has quite a sophisticated view of what is called a sacramental marriage and what isn't. Reading the deeper meaning of what a sacramental marriage is can be quite encouraging for anyone willing to ponder such.
Basically just because people say i-do doesn't mean they or their partner were ready for marriage or had a sacramental marriage for a multitude of reasons and therefore not married in the true sense. If this is deemed true through mature inquiry the people are freed from their "contract ". This is a gross oversimplification but gives a basic outline if anyone is interested to peruse more info, it's not straight up black and white no divorc period.
