Can't help but feel jealous

My wife and I separated back in April 2018. I met someone incredible just months later. She is older than me by 14 years and is a widow. Her husband died in November 2016.
I know she loves me deeply and always will but sometimes it's a hard on days like today when it would have been his birthday and she is hearting all the posts on Facebook about how he was the loveliest man ever and hearting all the photos people have put up of him. Am I being unreasonable? It's just so hard

Widows do this.Just rest assured that this is a testament to her loving heart,and besides (not trying to be cold here)she's yours now.It's not like some crazy ex is going to bust into your house and blow your head off with a shotgun.I'm sure she will/or has done the same thing around the holidays.It's her way of coping.Two of my brothers are married to widows,so this isn't some random barroom opinion here.Please don't take it too hard.Let her do her thing.
