Is there anyway to find out what has been looked at in private browsing at all?

I have a friend going through a nasty divorce. Her ex used private browsing to look at his porn and to find places to meet women so he could cheat on her, is there any chance I can figure out what he may have looked at?

Data from a Private Browsing mode session is never stored on disk. The sessionstore.js file only stores the data from the regular session. Sorry but it's impossible to recover the site visited on firefox in private browsing because the browser don't save anything on your computer

Maybe contact the legal department of your ISP to see if it is possible to have access to this information.

Firefox doesn't store this data when accessed in Private Browsing mode, but you may have security software that stored some data, so check that as well. Some security software (firewall) stores data log files.
