I'm just going to be honest here.....Dayel needs to be in her own bed now. You said that she "still insists on sleeping in our bed". You are the parent....she is running the show and is splitting up your marriage. Lorne moving to another room speaks volumes on how he feels about it.
I don't know the aboriginal culture, but here in the states kids sleep in their own beds. She will never learn independence from you if you allow her to still sleep in your bed. Kids need that.....parents need the break.

Introduce her slowly to her own bed. Tell her that mommy thinks it's a good idea. Decorate her room with her favorite things so she will want to be in her room. You mentioned about the bond that develops when sleeping in the family bed.....that bond is already there. That isn't going to change. A four year old should want to be in her own room.

You've got to do something or you are going to lose Lorne. The feelings you are feeling towards him are not good. I think you are feeling that you have to choose between your daughter and your husband. That doesn't have to happen.

Get Dayel in her own bed, and welcome Lorne back to yours.

Just my opinion, no offense intended.

Love, Mikki
