He needs to file as MFS.  Actually you can still file a Joint return if you both agree.  Joint is the best way.  Did his ssn show up on your return at the top?

If you have a qualifying child allowing you to file as Head of Household you need not concern yourself about how he files, but you are correct that he should file as married separately if he does not also have a qualifying child.
