Not likely! Judges seldom give the obligated parent a "break" on their financial obligations to children of a previous relationship on the grounds that the parent remarries and/or has children of such a relationship. In such cases, the law presumes the obligated parent's first duty is to the children not to a new spouse/significant other, regardless of the debt(s) that parent incurs from the new relationship.

A new wife's income cannot be attached for any child support arrears owed by the father, but her credit and any shared assets may be affected.

In states like California, her income has to be included in calculation for any child support adjustment, but it's limited to 20% and generally only applies when he's been laid off and is seeking a reduction.
