Husband wants divorce after finding out about wife's past relationship

Q: Girl had a relationship in past and now she got married and she is true to her husband but her husband came to know of her past relationship and he seeks a divorce. What does Islam says about this situation?

A: If she has sincerely repented for her past and reformed her life, it will be greatly rewarding for the husband to conceal her faults and keep her in his nikaah.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
