I feel that my family members gossip about my life. I am divorced and my child lives with her Dad in another state.
They discuss the details of my prior family life and also what is happening now with my daughter.
I don't do that to them and resent my brother, mom, dad and cousin for doing this.
The only thing I can do is change the subject to talk about neutral things.
I don't like the fact that my brother and cousin know so much about my personal life, but don't know what to do. They hear it from my ex-husband and daughter.
I will try to change the subject and ignore it as much as possible.
What else can I do?
I have decided not to talk to my cousin about my personal life because she just seems to talk too much about it to others, etc.
My brother is of no help and never has been. He just communicated with my ex thinking he would be able to meet my daughter and it backfired in his face. I have decided to ignore him also for some time.

I think you should not ignore it when they start talking about it. You will give them the impression that it's ok if you don't say anything. I would try to get everyone together and give them a heartfelt speech on how they make you feel when they talk about you and your business. If they continue to do it after that, personally I would only see them on holidays and birthdays(maybe). At least you won't be around to HEAR them talk about you...outta sight....outta mind!
