As per your query, assuming that the parties are governed by Hindu law:

All the  heirs   of   class 1 IE  sons daughters widow  and  mother of the  deceased  take  equally  among them therefore  the  widow  of the  deceased  is  entitled  to a  share  equal to a  share  of the deseased person’s son/daughter/mother.

Also, since the divorce was not granted yet and she is legally his wife then can claim a share in your brother’s property
