What's the deal with Gloria's ex husband and daughter

Do you watch the show MOM? This situation could be what happened there. When they're looking at photos of the daughter's graduation, he starts to cry and says "I should've been there", which is a big hint of that.

Also, if he had raped her, he wouldn't even have been invited to dinner.

That's how I took it. He wasn't there for her when she was growing up, and now he wants to put his arm around her and act like they are close. She wasn't having it.
