Legal Question in Family Law in Louisiana

I reunited with an old love recently and he left his wife to be with me, their marraige was already fallen apart. Anywho he moved to live with me from arkansas to lousiana. we are now engaged and plan to get married later this year. She filed for divorce on grounds of adultry and in the divorce papers she asked for full custody with reasonable visitation, however she despises me and the fact that we are together. He has asked to see is daughter ( which is 2yrs old) several times and she says he can not see her UNLESS he comes there by himself and visits with her. She says he can not bring her to our home , and that she do not see why her daughter should meet me and my kids or have any interaction with me at all. Everytime he tries to call and ask to talk to his daughter his ex goes on and on about why he left her and so on. She has only let him speak to his daughter a few times. she sends me emails saying she is going to report to my job that i am a homewrecker and blah blah. He left her in may and she has not agreed to let him see her yet. he signed the divorce papers and sent them back and now is waiting on the finalization but in there it did not detail how the visitation will be. What are his rights ? can he show up and get his daughter? he has asked over 3 times to vsit with his daughter but she says yes only if he comes there aloe and visits at her house which he is definitely not going to do.

He will have to get an attorney in Arkansas. Arkansas law will dictate custody and visitation.
