Default Diane is very pregnant and has no mate

Jack and Diane got along for a few months then had a litter. She got pregnant again and they viscously fought and Diane tore half of Jack's nose off. I separated them when I noticed it this morning. Oddly I didn't hear them fight but I have a huge dilemma is it possible for her to raise a litter with no mate help please she's 20 days pregnant.
hhhhhhhhhhheeeeeeeeeeeeellllllllllllllllllllllllll lpppppppppppppppppp!!!!!!!!!

Though the males may help a bit raising the litter, I'm certain the mother will do fine without him around.

she should be fine on her own and probably better of without him just now in-case he impregnated her yet again after this litter is delivered

There should be no problem. It is the female who feeds the pups. The male just provides some warmth really. Another litter would put a tremendous strain on her body so it is best he is out poor little man. Make sure he is not in with any daughters or anything.
