Do not worry. He will not kill himself. Just stay in touch with him, and check up regularly, but do not be overbearing. Give him some space. Try to divert his attention from the problem at hand by taking him out for a physical activity such as skiing, canoeing, climbing, drinking, etc. etc. That will keep him from thinking about his "ex-wife". I am sure he is traumatized by his experience, so please do not remind him of it by asking questions about it.
