 I've always thought that divorce doesn't just affect the husband and wife and their kids but the whole family. If your family were close to your exwife before you divorced then it probably hit them as hard as it hit you except unlike you, they didn't get the same chance to say goodbye. Maybe the reason they go round you is to have a reason to keep it touch with her. Understandably your new wife is threatened by this and I guess what you need to work out is if your family should stop talking to your ex to make your wife happy or if she should suck it up to make your family happy. Make your decision and then talk to the relevant party about how the other is feeling. This is essentially about your relationship with your family and since both women probably care about you,as do your family, they should want to do what makes you happy.

Talk to your family about it. Tell them you don't apprieciate the way they are behaving.
If your son is with his mother then it is only right they go direct to her to see him... it just misses out the middle man, and since your Ex is the mother of their grandchild then there is nothing wrong with them staying on good terms.
However they should be respectful and nice to your new wife as well.
Good Luck!! xx
