Ask her to call you when her husband isn't around. Or call her and say how about we have some girl time and go somewhere together, just the two of you, no men.

Her husband is immature! LOL And it's funny how he keeps doing that, interrupting your conversations. Perhaps you should tell your sister that it's difficult for you to relax and really talk with her when there is this triangle of conversation taking place. Tell her you love her calls, and understand that her husband wants her attention too, but you can't be torn in two like a wishbone all the time, and never getting your wish just to enjoy a conversation, one on one, with your sister!
Send her husband a pacifier and tell him to stick it in his mouth when the two of you are visiting on the phone. Maybe he will see he's being a big baby! LOL

Sounds like he has a controlling issue. How else does he control her time, activities, etc. Controlling people are immature. Just like a 3 year old when you're on the phone. The next time he pulls this stunt, your sister should hand him the phone and say, "Here, you seem to have a lot to say, why don't you just talk to my sister, I'm going to read a book." He'll probably not like it because the focus is on him and he looks like a jerk.

That drives me crazy too. They are together all the time - it shouldn't be hard for him to wait to talk to her or for her to give you her full attention. Tell her that it bothers you - she's your sister - she should understand. If she doesn't and it keeps happening then you should return the favor - get other calls while she's on the phone or talk to someone else. She should get the hint.

Hang up a few times when she talks with him...
and if she calls back tell her that you thought it was someone else on the line... keep doing that and she will either give you undivided attention or she won't call you anymore.
Someone's got to tame that jerk she has for a husband!

Her husband just probably feels left out. Try to include him on some things, then maybe he won't interrupt your conversation with your sister, or at least not as much as he does now.

I'm been in that situation and I find it annoying. She probably is aware of it already; so you might just gently test the waters about that issue when you're alone with her sometime and she may bring it up herself. If not, then kindly tell her how you feel about it and that you are trying to be honest.

Tell her to put you on speaker so that you can talk to both of them. He probably just feels left out. Why are you so upset? It sounds like maybe you and your brother-in-law are competing for her attention. Quit worrying, she still loves you. She just loves her husband too. My family does the same thing.

be honest with your sister in a respectful way so as not to damage your relationship and try setting up outings so you will have your sister all to yourself

Try this: when your sister calls you, just tell her "I'm busy right now. I can't talk." Then just hang up.
