Please look up parental alienation. The first overheard conversation strongly reeks of this. I suspect his ex needs counselling but is not doing it.
Is the girl in counselling? Just from what you wrote I would guess she is feeling a lot of guilt (and that her mom is making her feel it). The father should not walk away, his daughter needs him to be there and help her. If he walks, then he just gives reason to the mother's claims and guilt.
