Although Matthew 22:30 indicates that earthly relationships like marriage will not be the same in heaven - we will definitely recognize those we knew on earth.
The story of Lazarus and the rich man, in Luke 16:20, shows we will still retain our identity and relationships in heaven. The rich man still remembered his siblings - and Lazarus, whom he knew on earth.

The Bible tells us, “At the resurrection people will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven” (Matthew 22:30). This was Jesus’ answer in response to a question concerning a woman who had been married multiple times in her life – who would she be married to in heaven (Matthew 22:23-28)? Evidently, there will be no such thing as marriage in heaven. This does not mean that a husband and wife will not longer know each other in heaven. This also does not mean that a husband and wife could not still have a close relationship in heaven. What it does seem to indicate, though, is that a husband and wife will no longer be married in heaven. There is likely no purpose for marriage in heaven since there is no procreation or loneliness.

Okay, this question is in the Bible, and your answer is wrong.
1. As Jesus said, in heaven people are neither married nor are they given in marriage. There are no husbands and wives in heaven.
2. Marriage lasts till death, not after (hence: "as long as you both shall live" and "Until death do you part".)

No one is married in heaven....
Matthew 22:29-31 (New International Version)
29Jesus replied, "You are in error because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God. 30At the resurrection people will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven. 31But about the resurrection of the dead—have you not read what God said to you,
Mark 12:24-26 (New International Version)
24Jesus replied, "Are you not in error because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God? 25When the dead rise, they will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven. 26Now about the dead rising—have you not read in the book of Moses, in the account of the bush, how God said to him, 'I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob'[a]?

Oh, this is one of those trick questions. She is not married to either. In heaven one is not married or given in marriage.

Death ends any marriage. The first husband is no longer her husband.

Mainly the 2nd one, unless she chooses otherwise!

Neither, heaven is a mythological place.

Death may end my marriage but it will not end my freindship.
