Legal Question in Family Law in California

How many years does Spousal Support have to be paid?

If I was married for 14 years and 4 months, (which after 7 years my wife had an affair and conceived a child by this affair) how long do I have to pay her Spousal Support. I am also paying Child Support for the child that we did have together
