Ordered to wed, Tim was unfaithful (3-5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

two-timed

'was unfaithful' is the definition.
(to two-time is to date two people at once)

'ordered to wed tim' is the wordplay.
'ordered' is an anagram indicator.
'to'+'wed'+'tim'='towedtim'
'towedtim' anagrammed gives 'TWO-TIMED'.

(Another definition for two-timed that I've seen is " Was unfaithful or double-crossed".)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
