People can fall in love. People can fall out of love. Nothing is
unchangable.
Though frankly, if your husband has fallen out of love with you, it
doesn't seem particlarly likely that he'd fall back in love with you
while he's pursuing a relation****p with someone else.
(It may not be likely in any case though.)

Certainly you, your husband, and his friend all have your own
(different) interests at heart. Which isn't especially surprising.
