No. At present the law in Arizona only recognizes the income and assets of the parents in determining child support. This may change, as there is a proposal to have any spouse's income considered up to 50%. But for now, you're safe. Plus, if you have any separate property (like an inheritance that you then keep or invest in something separate from your significant other's funds) it would stay your separate property, regardless of any question about his child support responsibilities.
Let me know if there is anything further I can do for you.
SIncerely,
