Using IVF to become a stepfather?

Hi. I'm 36, on my first marriage.  My lovely wife is 33 and was married once in her early twenties which ended in her becoming a widow at 24.

After he died, the doctors were able to freeze some of his sperm, which she immediately grabbed to make embryos to, in her words, "secure her claim to them". Creepy but effective. His family had been trying to bulldoze her in other ways related to the estate, and this was one of her ways to fight back. There are 4 embryos from this.
