My best friend and her husband are currently going through a divorce. They separated last April when she packed all her stuff and moved out. I went over to help her move and soon discovered that she had an older man supporting her for the past 3 years. He is also married and has no intention of leaving his wife but continues to support her financially and they do have sex. My best friend,"Connie" I'll call her, seems to think there's nothing wrong with this. Her husband has no proof that this has been going on but suspects it. Ok, the problem is that late May early June of last year AFTER she had left her hubby she got pregnant. Yes, she was still going over and sleeping with hubby but was also sleeping with her "sugar daddy". She just had the baby, a boy, last month and the divorce proceedings are progressing. My problem is that her hubby assumes the baby is his and they are quoting him a child support amount of $700 a month. Should I tell him what I know and tell him to get a DNA test or should I keep my mouth shut?

I think it would be a crime if you did not tell him. IMHO child support is crippling for a guy to pay - asking a man who is not the father to be financially crippled for the next 18 years is a terrible thing to do.

I would find a way to tell the husband. He should have the opportunity to find out if this is his child or not. He has every right to know what is going on
