Does your son badmouth his mom when he's with you? Does she badmouth you to him? If she does, that has got to stop. The best thing any set or parents can do is be consistent, but backing her unconditionally won't work either. Perhaps it's time to have a one on one with her out of earshot of the kids and find out what's going on face to face.
Kids will play one parent against the other when they're together. Apart, they're probably doing it even more.
Can your son live with you if it's that bad? That would be something else to consider.
