You allowed this to take place and only you can do something about it.
While I feel this answer would be my exact one too, you really haven't disclosed as to WHY you let it get this way in the first place. Who knows? It could be a long, drawn out sad story as to why you let him and his new wife enter your life this way.
Go back to page 3 and he quickly explains the background.
While different, I feel for him as we had moved my mother in to PA after she had a medical issue post surgery. She was in Fl and was very resentful, however the option was to move into a home down there.
Her sense of entitlement almost caused my wife to leave, until we finally laid down the law. She opted to move into a small apartment nearby, and for the most part, things are back to normal.
You need to get your wife on the same page, sit down with him, leave his new wife out of it and dictate some basic ground rules.
It will either make him change, make him move out, or make no change, but either way nothing will change unless you force it to.
Best of luck.
