A.It is not mandatory that the wife has to stay at the husbands place while in divorce.
However, if the wife as you said does not want divorce the, she will always take the plea that let her stay with the husband till such time that the divorce proceedings is over.
Even if the spouse are living together they can file for divorce.
The court shall allow "Judicial Separation" at first and then try to reconcile such marriage. If it all fails then a decree for divorce shall be granted.
In case of judicial separation both have to stay separately as it will be directed by the court.
Thanks
