Partners relationship with ex wife

Been in a relationship for 3 years, my partner separated from his wife two years before we met. They had agreed to split when their daughter was 10 but stayed living together until she left school, sep rooms and lives etc for 6 years just lived under the same roof.
he’s a good guy and I trust him but his close relationship with his ex wife is becoming an issue, it’s great that they get on etc but the non stop texts from her day in day out (all day all night) is getting a bit too much.

It feels like she leans on him for emotional support and he’s a nice guy so wouldn’t ignore her etc. the ex wife is with someone else now and I know 100% they both have zero desire to get back together.

how would you feel and what would you do in my situation?

That's the problem with second hand goods
They never fully feel like yours.

What a horrible thing to say. No person should be described as 'goods'. And for a lot of 2nd marriages, it's the 2nd one that feels more 'real'. The one they got right.
