So many permutations here so the quicker they can get some proper legal advice and assistance, the better.
That’s what I was thinking. Depending on what equity is in the house after a sale, she could perhaps buy a house in Wales where housing is cheaper assuming the children would want to live in Wales and/or with her.

He did his best so as she or his ex girlfriend got nothing. The chances are is that her name is not on the Mortgage.
Blimey, 14 and 16 year old kids, ex boyfriends and ex girlfriends. Sounds complicated.

doesn't need to be. If there was no will and they are still married, she inherits the house and everything else (if in England).
There is a reasonable chance that the mortgage had some kind of life assurance protection. Lenders like that because they make 80% commission and it saves them the effort of turfing widows and orphans out of their home.
Obviously she should be talking to the benefits agency to see what benefits she should be getting.
