The bigger problem is that she may have a claim on you for child support. Current in New York, a man pays child support to his ex-wife whose now married to the bio dad. You do need to talk to your attorney, and fast. There is a way to do a non-invasive paternity test before she has the baby. I would like to be kept apprised of your progress.

I really doubt it, especially if she’s self-sufficient and going to live with the father.
Get an attorney and let them know what the hell is going on. Don’t sign anything. Let the other guy support her and pay for his bastard.
Your wife being pregnant with another man’s baby does not magically make your own children by her stop being your responsibility. You still have to pay child support for your own children. You do not, however, have to pay child support for anyone else’s children. As for the spousal support, read your divorce decree: the answer is in there.
She can. Unless you had some kind of prenup that negates alimony in the case of infidelity. Talk to your lawyer and see what options you have. But unless you put it in writing previously, her extra curricular acts won’t stop her from collecting from you. But it may help you to bring it up when the judge has to decide how much. Most judges are sympathetic to the spouse that was cheated on.
She sure can, one issue has nothing to do with the other. If you divorce and you were her primary means of support during your marriage most likely she will end up with some spousal support award in the final divorce decree. If she is capable of working or made her own income during the marriage the likelihood if support goes down, but again has nothing to do with her current pregnancy.
It really depends on how long you were married for. If you are resently married (less than 3-5 years), more than likely, she will not be granted any alimony. However, if you supported her for a 20 year marriage and she suddenly did this, you’ll be paying something more than likely. Also, be careful, if the divorce is not finalized, she can put your name down on the certificate as the father. After that, it will be hard as hell to get it off. You will also want to make sure a DNA test is done, just to be sure you aren’t the father.
It all depends on the state. Many states do not allow you to divorce is the wife is pregnant. You have to wait until the baby is born and paternity is determined. You really need to talk to a lawyer. If the child is not yours then it is not your responsibility.
Depending on what state you live in, the child is considered yours until you have a paternity test. If the child is not yours this will be a way to show how your marriage was and the judge may side more with you.
However if you try and fight this and the baby is yours the judge will be very mad at you and it may cost you rights with this child.
alimony depends on how long you were married and how much she made during the marriage. Child support is something different, some states wont allow you to divorce your wife while she is pregnant. Most states automatically assume the child is yours when your wife gets pregnant during marriage, in those states yes she can try to put you on support and she might when because you were married, you could demand a dna test, but if the judge thinks you should be the responsible father it is up to the judge depending on the state all because this happened while you were still married and living together. You really need to talk to a lawyer before she gives birth and get the paper work going to get this taken care of in your favor.
Have he take a test to see who’s baby it is after she has it. If it is not your’s, then you will not have to pay. If it is your’s then you must pay.
