No, they had broken up after one of Jan's drunken rages at the time that Hank was replaced by a Skrull. Basically:

- They're fighting over the Hawkeye thing (which I'm also pissed at because damn you, Austen) at the time that Jan gets drunk and spills the beans to Wanda. After getting put into a coma by a mind-controlled She-Hulk, Hank's all "Oh, you were a horrible wife and an even worse ex, but I'll forgive everything if you don't die on me." They leave for Oxford in The End.

-As we find out later, especially in flashbacks from Secret Invasion, their time in England was utterly miserable, and Bendis has it being mostly Jan's fault. Hank starts throwing himself into his work to get away from her, and expresses regret at the move, wondering if maybe going back to the states would be better. Jan, drunk, again (Bendis seems to love using alcohol when he needs her to do something stupid) picks a fight with him about it, and he wakes up the next morning to all her stuff gone and "Bye" on the mirror in lipstick. He later rebound-hooks-up with a college student (...oy), who turns out to be the first Skrull who replaces him. Jan and Skrull!Pym continue to snipe at each other until he bio-bomb kills her.

And Jan's only other relationships were either revenge (Hawkeye), rebound (Iron Man), or not entirely serious (Paladin), but Hank had a relationship with Firebird after she stopped him from killing himself, and a short friends-with-benefits with Tigra (which the Skrull copy later restarted, leading to Tigra's current little kitten kid).
