No, an ex-wife is typically not considered next of kin. Next of kin usually refers to a person's closest living relatives, such as a spouse, children, parents, or siblings. After a divorce, legal ties are severed, and the designation of next of kin usually shifts to other family members unless specified otherwise in legal documents.

I think you meant "Next of Kin" which means the nearest survivor to the person who has died. IN a family with a husband wife and two children, if the Husband dies, the wife is Next of Kin. If both parents died, say in a car crash, then the children are next of kin to them. Hope this helps!
He doesn't have the legal right to have anything to do with his ex-wife's funeral unless she expressed that right in her will after the divorce. If not, that right belongs to her legal next of kin, children then parents then siblings.Of course not. If he is the executor of a current will he has a better chance.
If your wife dies, chances are you are going to hear about it, as the next of kin.
If you are speaking of the relative or relatives entitled to share in your property if you die intestate (without a will) then if you are unmarried your parents are your next of kin. If they were deceased then your sister would be your next of kin. In another sense they are all your next of kin. See related question link.
