Lastly, we aren't discussing a 5 or 10 year marriage. We are discussing 30 and 32 year marriages. In both marriages, the cheated on spouses had a very realistic expectation that their lifelong marital contributions were towards their retirement with these people in the near future. So in this case - yes I think it is moral for her to receive spousal support for the remainder of his life.
