Generally speaking, if there is a custodial parent and a non-custodial parent (joint custody is different and each case is unique), then the non-custodial parent pays child support and that child support is supposed to be used (along with the custodial parent's contribution, because they're responsible for providing for the child too) to pay for everything that the child needs, including lunches.

Will child support be based on my new husband's income?

A spouse who is not the biological or adopter parent of a child is not responsible for child support. However, if the non obligated spouse shares a bank account or other jointly owned property with the obligated parent he or she can be financially affected. If the situation is in regard to child support being amended because a parent has remarried and his or her financial situation has greatly increased, the court might take that into account regarding the amount the obligated parent is paying.

How will it affect child support payments if your husband's ex-wife gets sole custody?

Child support, is based on the needs of the child and the economic situation of the parents. Child support is primarily determined by what it takes to provide the child with a reasonable standard of living, based on what the two divorced parents have available. Sole custody indicates that the child will be living solely (with limited visitation) with a just one of the parents. Thus, that parent will be responsible for providing the vast majority of the food, clothes, etc. that the child will be using. The non-custodial parent now no longer will be providing those (if they had shared custody). So it is likely that the court will also modify the child support requirement - either reducing the amount the custodial parent had been paying the now non-custodial parent, or increasing the amount that the now non-custodial parent had been paying the now custodial parent.
