how do I cope with a DH who seems jealous of his DC relationship with me

My DH seems to be resentful of the time I spend with my DC, it feels like I should be his exclusive right only especially now the DCs are 16 and 20, if me and my DCs start a conversation he will start to talk over them, it's causing a few issue's at the moment where my youngest DC feels unwanted and pushed out.

ExH used to do something similar to me and DS. He was at home with him, and could spend time with me after DS went to bed, but he would interrupt things like me reading a book to DS.

Is your DH not included in the conversations ever?
When he's talking over, is it within the conversation or about something else?
Does he spend enough time with you or the DC?

How long have you been together? Has he said anything to you directly about this or has it just started?

Are they his DC as well?
