Hate being the grammar Nazi, but she didn't *lose her job for who she married".
She lost her job because of who she's married to.
She isn't a hero who saved her husband by losing her job. She's a criminal whose crime is being married to her husband.
At least that's what the wording implies quite strongly.
Most grammar nazis I know would go with "whom" for the object of a preposition.
Not me.
'Whom' is the last vestage of cases in English, and I'd absolutely love to see them go. The only use for 'whom' I have is mocking the British, really.
...so is she married to he or is she married to him?..
