The definition is at the beginning of the clue.
How the clue works
The definition is Knot — specifically a type used in rope-work. But the whole clue does double duty as a cryptic reading: a "less-than-committed marriage" is a HALF HITCH, with half doing the work of "partial or less-than-committed" and hitch being a colloquial word for marriage, giving you a rather cheeky secondary reading alongside the straight definition.
