VerifiedDear XXXXX
It all depends on whether the ROI Courts would recognise the divorce and marriage. It is difficult to say with certainty as I practice English law only, but I would expect (about 90% sure) that the divorce is valid and therefore it is unlikely that your father's ex-wife can claim anything.
Sincerely
