It depends on if your spouse had a Will. You could get everything, you could get nothing.

How can you prevent your ex-spouse from accessing your life insurance left to minor children?
It is never a good idea to have minor children as beneficiaries on a life insurance policy. You can create a trust or at least leave it to someone you trust and after their name put "for the benefit of ________". Where I have the blank put the names of your minor children.

Life insurance policies are extremely flexible.
