Your in-laws' housing situation is not your problem. You need time alone with your new husband but I think he needs to deal with this. If your parents were overstepping their boundaries, it would be up to you to handle this. Since it is his parents, who probably did not expect to have to house adult kids with grandkids at this stage in their lives, he will have to tactfully tell them what they do not want to hear, but probably subconsciously know. They are visiting too often and staying too long.

Perhaps he can find a way to state this positively, such as, you and he need more time together.

Perhaps he can be the one to suggest family counseling.

Their problem is not your problem. They have to solve their problem. They can't keep running away from it.
