Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

I reside in new york . 17 years ago I dated a woman from tennessee and she got pregnant and gave birth to a baby boy. a year later i found out about it and have been paying child support since birth (including the arrears). several years later I have recieved the news that since my biological child was born the mother had gotten married at the same time and he had adopted my child without my knowledge.

is this legal?
