Your present husband ought not to have believed your first husband. It may not be possible to control the behaviour of other person. The fault lies in lack of understanding at the level of your second husband and he may not be deserving of your association any more. There is nothing in law which may require you to deal with your ex. Just try to deal with the situation the way it comes. It is an unfortunate situation and we need to deal with it. I am sorry for the mishap you are facing. Wish you good luck.

Please verify the conditions stipulated in divorce deed/decree as normally condition not to harrass/interfere by any party is stipulated. If so and if you have any provable evidence you can examine the possibility of approaching court against your ex. husbnand for breach of conditions of divorce decree. in any case if you are not at fault you must forcefully tell your present husband not to be guided by such provocation from your ex. husband and he MUST trust you in toto

It is social matter more than legal. Marriage is name of trust, and where trust lacks, marriage cannot go ahead. Present husband must realize the past history and grudge of previous husband whose inducement may not be belief upon. Try to convince present husband to understand the situation rather writing to ex-husband which will create more embracement. There is no legal way to get rid from such annoyance. Try to involve your elders to overcome the situation.

Your ex is a 3rd grade person. Just talk to your husband and not to entertain him and make him understand that marriage is all about trust.

There is no legal remedy to your query but involve elders so the matter gets settled.
