Answer
Muhtaram / Muhtaramah
In the Name of Allāh, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāh wa-barakātuh.
It is not permissible for a stepson to marry his stepmother. The stepson is therefore regarded to be a Mahram for your wife. However, if the stepmother is young and there is a fear of Fitna it is better not to appoint the stepson as a Mahram for the travel.
And Allah knows best
