Separation always struck me as the simplest, because neither death nor crossing the sea seems to end elven marriage in and of itself (which in some cases might have been damn annoying). I guess if it was a political match and they found they had nothing in common and went on to lead separate lives, he might want to be discreet about seeing someone else - public respect for the mother of his son, something like that?
As for LaCE, I think a whole bunch of First Age elves never read the rule book. It's a bit like a very pious and devout Christian presenting a visiting alien with a copy of the 10 Commandments and saying 'These are our rules and we all obey them'. Yeah, right.
