Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Texas

Will with ex wife

I live with my boyfriend and we share numerous accounts and split all the bills in half. He has a life insurance policy with me as the beneficiary. He made a will a long time ago with his ex-wife. If something happens to him will I be forced out of our home? Will all my belongings that are in the home be lost?
