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.

If there is no surviving wife but there are surviving children, they are next in line, then parents if there are no children.
