Hello Bob,
You may be very,lucky and your message will find someone who holds this certificate .
However, by clicking the "order" button in the last column of the index entry you will be guided in purchasing the certificate for yourself.
Possibly, if you give the team here all the information you have about the couple, some useful information might be found to help your searches.

GALLOWAY V. GALLOWAY.
George William Henry Galloway sought for a dissolution of his marriage with Alice Clara Galloway....
G. W. H. Galloway, the petitioner, deposed that he was a shop assistant, employed by the firm of Messrs. Shaw & Co., Hay-street. He was married to the respondent on the 14th March, 1886. They lived together in London from this date until February, 1895, and had three children-two being alive at the present time. They then came out to Western Australia in the R.M.S. Orizaba, the co-respondent being a passenger by the same boat. A friendship sprang up between them on the boat, and they parted from the co-respondent at Albany as he was going on to Melbourne....

You can order the 1902 marriage certificate or his birth certificate (which may be more accurate regarding names of mother and possibly father).

When George married Clara Alice WOOD at Camden Town, Middlesex in 1886 he said he was aged 24, an Ironmonger, lived at 31 Georgiana Street, and his father was George William GALLOWAY a commercial traveller.

Are you able to see the family in England on the 1871 and 1881 censuses?
Easy enough to locate ( ;D Dundee) when you know the father was a commercial traveller.
If not, please let us know and we can help.
Mother is Eliza.

Hi Bob,
You can see a transcription of the 1881 census here:
https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:X32R-FMH
If you click on each of the blue name links you will see their occupation. Mother Eliza's birthplace is not entered here probably because it is so difficult to read the writing, but the original says 'Surrey'. The original also definitely says 'George W.H.' for the son, not 'George W.K.'.
Here they are in 1871:

The 1871 gives the occupation of George senior as a "manger to bookseller"
In 1881, George junior is a "bookseller's assistant"
The tin-smithing iron-mongering must have come later :-\

The occupations are quite clear - George=printer, Alice=none.
It is also against RC rules to copy & paste information from commercial websites.

Thanks Annie that's brilliant work
