Wow, that certainly was a twist. Good of MIL to open up to you, and somewhat confide.
It sounds like XH knows about the divorce given his excitement over the possible joint living arrangements, her permanent and him transient. XH showing not quite the normal reaction to divorce news. Maybe he was told before and has had plenty of time to process this pending divorce, although that’s doubtful. This news will be another emotional input in his already scrambled plethora of competing feelings, which will have an affect upon him.
I’m glad you got the agreement settled and signed. Just one more signature to go.
And wise not to poke the bear.

Feelings are fleeting. Be better, not bitter. Love the person, forgive the sin.
