Bad scene but a year is a long time and many things change. From experience, any thoughts you have about your BIL, his Ex and his GF and their child should be kept between your ears. It has been my personal experience that while your wife will and should unload both barrels concerning her brother you should remain mute. Nothing good can ever come from providing your two cents to your wife concerning her family. If she really presses you just tell her "Sweetheart, I feel bad that you have been put in such a tough situation. I agree with you."
