Maybe, if the affair involves cohabitation or some other form of significant financial support. Spousal support is typically limited to the time required for the ex-spouse to become self-supporting.

Birth of another child affecting child support?
Yes, the birth of another child may affect child support. A filing should be made to recalculate the support amount based on this change of circumstance. Added: In Delaware, for example, parents are given a 'credit' for other minor children they are supporting that are not part of the filing. So, while the right to support may not be affected, the amount of support may be. Generally, the older child's right to support is not diminished by the birth of subsequent children.

Sometimes two people that get married find they are not compatible with each other and fall out of love and if the man has an affair he may fall in love with the other woman and although cheating is not the right thing to do if he left his wife he does not love for the other woman then he made the right choice. If he still loves his wife then he has hurt her deeply by cheating with another woman and he could well have lost a wonderful and loving person over an affair. Often the other person in the affair is not all the married man thinks they are and he will be the one to pay the price.
