Once the adoption is final your husband is the legal father and assumes all responsibility for the child. This includes support.

Of course not, once the adoption takes place ( normally within a few weeks of the letter) then the child support will stop.

I am sure that since there is an adoption going on the ex will expect the support to stop shortly.
