Her husband’s father does not pray because he denies that it is obligatory; how should she interact with him?

Firstly: 

The father mentioned in the question, who
does not pray because he denies that it is obligatory, is a kaafir
(disbeliever) in the sense of major kufr that puts him beyond the pale of
Islam; there is no difference of opinion concerning that among any of the
scholars. Such a thing can almost never be done except by stubborn atheists,
such as communists and secularists. Whoever denies anything of that which
was brought by the Messenger (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him)
becomes a disbeliever thereby. If the matter has to do with prayer and other
pillars of Islam and its major fundamentals, then that is even worse,
because there is no excuse for the one who denies and rejects it, as it is
so well known and people grow up in Muslim countries knowing that and
respecting it, even those who do not do it. Hence no one would dare to deny
that it is obligatory and reject it except one who has gone to extremes in
disbelief and stubbornness – Allah forbid. 

Shaykh al-Islam (Ibn Taymiyah – may Allah
have mercy on him) said: 

The sin of the apostates is worse before
Allah, and in the eyes of His Messenger and the believers, than one who is
originally a disbeliever, in several ways. These people are definitely to be
executed so long as they do not come back to that which they have left; it
is not permissible to make any treaty or peace deal with them or to offer
them safety, or to free their prisoners or ransom them in exchange for money
or in a prisoner exchange; it is not permissible to eat meat slaughtered by
them, or to marry their women or to take them as slaves so long as they
remain apostates, according to scholarly consensus. Both their fighters and
those who are not fighters – such as old men, the blind and the chronically
ill – are to be executed, according to scholarly consensus; that also
applies to their women, according to the majority of scholars. 

In the case of one who is originally a
disbeliever, it is permissible to enter into treaties with him and grant him
security; it is permissible to show kindness to him and to ransom him if he
is a prisoner, according to the majority of scholars. If he is one of the
People of the Book, it is permissible to offer them protection under Muslim
rule, and to eat their food and marry their women, and their women are not
to be fought and killed unless they take part in the fighting in word or in
deed, according to scholarly consensus. Similarly, none of them are to be
executed except those who are fighters, according to the majority of
scholars, as is indicated by the Sunnah. The disbeliever who is an apostate
is worse in terms of religion and worldly standing than the disbeliever who
remains a disbeliever.

Secondly: 

If the father is as you described him, then
we do not advise you to agree to marry his son, unless he will provide you
with separate accommodation that is far away from this father. In fact that
is the basic and natural requirement: that you should get married and have
your own accommodation, separate from his family and your family. 

The fact that the husband is staying in the
family home and living with this father as if nothing happened, and as if he
has not committed this grave action (of denying and forsaking prayer),
cannot be overlooked. Rather he should exhort him to fear Allah and rebuke
him for his disbelief and misguidance. Then if he persists in it, he should
leave him and avoid mixing with him, and he should protect his wife and
children from him, so long as he remains an apostate.
