As iacisrmma was saying, a wife has the right to choose to continue the marriage even if the husband wants to divorce her, thus making it prohibited for the husband to divorce her. (Assuming the husband is an Ashkenazi.) This right was granted to her by Rabbeinu Gershom. Of course the husband has the same right to choose to continue the marriage even if the wife wants a divorce from him. But in that case he has that right directly from the Torah.
