It isn't about purity or intimacy lol.
It's about the fact for seven months viewers were told her marriage with him was unhappy. She was very vocal in her opinions about him, his love, his family, and their marriage. I think the TM is wondering why would she go back to him when his love caused her so much pain.
Of course, she can move on after Abhinav's death, but why with the man that allegedly caused her so much distress in the first place. That's a valid question.

Please we must uphold Victorian notions of purity and intimacy. If you loved someone once upon a time in your life, you must prove that your love was true by remaining sexless for the rest of your life. Because, y'know, purity. What do you mean that it's 21st century and women don't have to adhere to essentialist notions of purity that were devised to control their bodily autonomy? What do you mean people like Vidyasagar, Ramabai, Premchand championed the cause of widow remarriage/divorce even in previous centuries?
Noooooooooo, our FL must remain pure for our hawt ML to prove her love. If she ever loved someone else, she ceases to be good enough for our ML. PURE. PURITY.
