I don't recognize the step-parent status unless the child has but one parent. If a person marries someone with kids and decides to, and successfully does, adopt the children, that relationship remains a legal one unless it is changed in the court system.
If my Dad and StepMom got divorced, I would likely still interact with her. She has been in my life as a Mother figure for most of my life. I was 8yrs old when they got married. My Dad had custody of both myself and my sister.
