In regards to eternal marriage, if a couple get sealed in the temple and get divorced, they get a temple annulment, right? What if they have children who are sealed to them, but then they get divorced and annuled, what happens to the children? Who are they sealed to? And what if those parents, remarry, are they denied entrance into the temple?

Temples are considered houses of God, places of holiness and peace separate from the preoccupations of the world.
Any temple annulment must be approved by the First Presidency of the church. So, in some instances, just because a couple gets divorced, does not mean that they get an annulment.

Children who are sealed still retain the blessings that come from being sealed, even if the parents' sealing is annulled.

A person's ability to enter the temple is based on their own personal worthiness/preparation to enter the temple, not on whether they are divorced or not.
