They should have talked about this before getting married.
She has made up her mind so there is nothing that he can do other then buck up and move on.
He may want to get some counseling to help him through this.
Always talk about things like children and parenting before getting married.

If it's that easy for her to tell him it's too late, after he said he would give up wanting a child, then, she was probably already wanting to separate from him, she just needed a reason, and got it, when he brought it up. It would probably be better for the both of them in the long run. He will eventually find someone else, and probably someone who wants the same kind of life he wants.

To be honest hun,
He needs to walk away. She is not fully right for him, he has certain wants and needs that totally differ than hers.
He sounds like a person who loves to much. That he will put aside his wants, needs and or desires just to keep the other person happy and with him, no matter what.
This is not a good thing to do, putting yourself on the back burner so that you are not alone. He may feel that he is in so much love with her, but its not so much that.
There is a book that has stories of relationships of men and women. Its called "Women Who Love Too Much" I know the title might scare him off, but its for both male and female. Its just that there are more females out their that live this way then men do.
I wish him the best of luck, and you as well cause your his friend.
Best wishes to you both...

If she says it's too late, then I guess it's too late. Apparently your friend learned a lesson here: sometimes you can't get everything you want in a relationship, and if compromise isn't possible, the relationship ends.
He'll get over it eventually, and since there are no children, there are no innocent victims in this split.

If they are in disagreement on something as monumental as that, they may need to consider what their marriage is built on. Maybe you need to let this one play out for your friends without seeking advice for them.
