Re: Ex spouse death
You need to talk to an attorney. Generally, the answer depends on whether your ex designated you before of after the divorce was granted. Most of the time, a divorce invalidates the beneficiary designation, but there are three exception. It will take more information for your attorney to properly advise you.

Re: Ex spouse death
Is there a divorce decree? Did the divorce decree mention you or your ex's insurance?
Was this an ERISA plan?
