Thank you for your question.
Since the divorce is still pending it is imperative that you address these concerns in any agreement that may be entered. While it may difficult to determine if she remarries, there may be means to address your concerns in the future. Based on your circumstances, it would be best to contact an experienced family law attorney to address your specific concerns and to ensure you understand your rights.
I hope this information was helpful to you.
