In my first marriage this is precisely what happened to me. I thought I was the daddy of a baby girl and it turns out that my ex (which is why she is an ex) decided to have a fling and got knocked up. This after 8 years of marriage. I spent thousands of dollars because the child was born premature. My family spent time and money growing attached to our girl and when this hit it caused no end of grief in my family. Once I found out the suspect sperm donor I went to court with a good attorney and we got a court ordered DNA. The judge was a right winger and nailed this guy to the wall for monies going back 8 years with interest. His parents actually went against him as they were filthy rich and they wanted custody of the child after our divorce. My ex tried to sue me for the award after all was said and done and her case got thrown out. I never thought in a million years something like that would happen, but it did. I was lucky in that I had a good attorney and Judge. The girl passed away due to complications of cerebral palsey a few years ago.
