Right to see half-siblings after death of mother
Hi.
In January last year, my mother unexpectedly passed away leaving behind myself, my four siblings, and my two half siblings to my step dad. My mum and my step dad had been married for almost 8 years when she died, and they had had 2 children together. During this marriage, the relationship between most of my siblings and him was not great, though he did provide for us and my mum very well.
When she died, my eldest sibling was already living away from home studying at university. My other siblings, myself, and my younger half-siblings remained living with him. The house relationship slowly deteriorated, before forcing another of my siblings to leave and move in with his girlfriend. A few months later, another sibling went away to study at university, leaving only myself, an older sister, and my half-siblings at living with my step dad at home.
Shortly after this, my step dad remarried a woman from another country that he had met so that she could move to the UK (there was a relationship, but she couldn't move here unless they got married). This made tensions even worse, and towards the end of last year (mid December) and shortly after my 18th birthday, he kicked me out of the house with no warning. I haven't seen my little siblings since.
A month later, he kicked my only remaining sister living at home out also, and now it is just my younger siblings, my step dad, and his new wife living there. He is not allowing me to see my siblings despite my constant asking to do so. It has now been 4th months since I have seen them, and I wonder if there is anything that I can do legally to force him to allow me to see my little brother and sister.
