Should a young person stay in loveless marriage?

My 35 year old daughter is looking for advice and I don't know what to tell her. Her husband is a decent guy. He works hard and is a good dad. But she feels he doesn't love her. He is very dull and doesn't have a lot to say. Not romantic. No shared interests. She has tried counseling but it is more of a personality thing. She is trying to stay for the kids unhappy and depressed. Met him young (17) and feels like she is missing out on being in love. What do you think?
