Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
BY "blood" means that you have (and always will have) the same grandparents, or other ancestor in common!. Your aunt is your mother's sister, and that does not change, if aunt gets a divorce!. They are still HER children!.
If the children are only HIS, then when they are divorced, they are no longer your aunt's 'children'!.
Blood cousins share the SAME grandparents!. Your actual cousins can have other cousins, through the "other" grandparents!. If those other grandparents are not parents of your own parents!.!. then you are not related!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

You would not be related to your cousins' cousins on the other side of their family, unless you and those cousins also have an ancestor in common!. You come from the materal side of your cousins' ancestry, and their other cousins come from the paternal side!. If your aunt's former husband is a relative of your father, THEN you and your cousins' cousins would also be cousins!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Unless you share a common ancestor, no you are not!. If you feel it is more friendly to refer to them as cousins, that is okay!. Otherwise they are just your cousins cousins!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
