Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Louisiana

undue influence challenge

my father died last year leaving a will (redone 6 months before he died of brain cancer) leaving the bulk of his estate to his 5th wife, 35 years younger.his children are challenging based on undue influence and diminshed metal capacity. so far, a few hearings down, the children have been successful. my question, if successful, can we also challenge the will preceding this will? the preceding will was written in 1992 and she still exuded a great deal of undue influence early on as well. she signed a prenup and was married to him for 14 years. i understand if we defeat this will the preceding will becomes valid. what would are chances be challenging that one as well? We have strong, substantial, evidence of undue influence throughout the years. it is a rather large estate.we are represented by counsel but i am also interested in the professional opinion of others, or any case law that might be beneficial to me..(us) thank you for any consideration.
