Sounds to me like you are very young or you are a cheater yourself...
If Bruce cheated then that was wrong, but I can't blame him divorcing his wife if he was no longer in love with her. Staying married just to stay married is ridiculous. I hope Bruce is happy and I hope Kim is enjoying her nail salon.
Sometimes you can't fix what is wrong. People grow apart. I'd rather people be alone and happy than in a bad marriage feeling like their world is falling apart around them
To me it's like a relationship to your kid. You made a comittment when you had them. There could be tough years with them and their problems. It may seem like it will never be fixed and it will never end. But you don't give up on your kid. You may get mad, sick, confused you name it, but you don't give up. You do not throw it away. With some time, work, learning and maturity, you might just end up with something special.
And "growing apart" isn't one.
There is honor in fulfilling one's comittment. Just walking away from a marriage because it doesn't feel right anymore is the reason over 50% of marriages fail. The comittment in marriage is to work together to fix what is wrong in the marriage and not just walk away and expect things to be different elsewhere.

I'd say no longer being in love with the person you married is a legitimate reason for ending a marriage.
