If the court orders them to do so, they must. Temporary child support is common. There is also a moral obligation.

If your ex is remarried is his new wife responsible for a child support order from a divorce decree?

No. Only the biological parents are responsible for the support of their minor children.

Some parents tried to get out of paying child support by not working and letting their new spouse support them but that is illegal. The house hold income is counted.
