Can you and your fiance live together if they have a kid by someone else?
Maybe. If the fiance has a custody or divorce settlement with the child's other parents, it may include a morality clause that prevents him/her from living with anyone of the opposite sex outside of marriage while the child is in the home. Your fiance should check his/her divorce/custody settlement to determine whether such a clause exists. If not, he/she should still run the idea past the other parent prior to your moving in together. Even without the clause, the child's other parent may attempt to raise custody issues regarding the situation.
