4 year old not sleeping

I wonder if anyone has any advice for me as feel like I've tried everything.
My 4 year old son has never been a great sleep but I managed to get him sleeping through the night at the beginning of this year. We then moved house in April which was a big change but he slept through every single night for months after. In July he started seeing his father again after 8 months of no contact and my partner moved in and since then sleep has deteriorated massively coming to a head over the last 2 months.
His bedtime routine is the same every night and he falls asleep well with me in the room however he starts waking around two hours after he falls asleep then will not sleep without me he either sleeps on my floor or me in with him and it's affecting my whole life. I'm exhausted he's exhausted I get no time with my partner we are very rarely in bed together. My son is very upset in the night and I get him off to sleep go back in my room and within an hour he's back up again it's relentless.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to help him as I feel helpless now
