Parents split and father has a new family

So my parents have recently split, it was kinda messy but all has settled now kinda.
My father has a new partner, who I feel he’s rushed into things with, their now engaged, moving in together etc and she has 4 children of her own, youngest is in her teenage years.

My dads taken the youngest and his partner on holiday with some friends. He’s never ever been one to holiday by the coast but he’s gone, and I’ve just seen he’s gone on all the rides with the child, which kinda upset me because when I was a kid he never did that, he told me I’d have to go on my own and he hates rides. So it was upsetting to see them all having a lovely time when I missed out on that as a child.

He’s taken some of my bedroom furniture for his new house for ‘if me and my partner ever wanted to stay’ but now turns out it’s her child’s room now and I can’t stay here nor have some of my own furniture back for our new house.

I dislike speaking to my mum about it as she’s had it tough recently with the split, bills etc (my mum called the relationship off) so I try not to mention it to her, if I’m honest we don’t speak much, she’s busy with work and keeps herself to herself so I sometimes feel very isolated like I have no family to go to at times.

Sorry for the ranting post, it’s nice to get it all out on paper

I'm sorry you're going through this. You're right not to speak to your mum about it. Your dad is acting very selfish and you might want to call him out on it. He took your furniture under false pretenses.

As someone whose parents when through a divorce when I was an adult teen, I can tell you that the strain of divorce doesn't allow people to think clearly. People are rarely rational and reasonable during such a stressful time. The fact is, your father after the "high" of being in a new relationship wears off, will go back to doing what he always does. I'd be surprised if this relationship lasts unless he's a guy who needs to be married and it doesn't matter to whom. Then he and she will be as unhappy as your parents were together. Be glad you're an adult and you don't have to live with him.
