What matters, is your immediate family, yourself, your husband and your kids.
Naturally it hurts, to not be respected by someone that socially should, yet, sadly, it doesn't always happen that way.
If your husband can find it in him, to walk away, you can too.
Fretting over her inability to behave properly, only gives her power over your emotions. She's clearly not worth an ounce of your energy.
Sometimes, on an afterthought, forgiveness starts at forgiving oneself. For instance, forgiveness for wanting to be accepted by her, is one thought.
