Yes, it's still valid. HOWEVER, a surviving spouse has rights to "take against the will" to the extent that she would have been able to if there were no will, and has certain other claims that she may make agains tthe estate. You'd need to speak with an attorney with your specific fact pattern to get a better answer.
