There is no such legal entity as a step-wife. A second wife is the surviving spouse and has rights of inheritance under state laws.
A wife who is disinherited by will has the right of election. The surviving spouse can elect to take a statutory share of the testator's estate. That share can be up to one-third of the estate. Texas is also a community property state. A surviving spouse has rights in any property acquired during the marriage.
You should consult with an attorney who can review your situation and determine what your rights are under your state laws.
