You are required to continue to pay alimony unless and until there is a Court Order to the contrary. This may be one factor that could be part of a "substantial change of circumstance" argument to get your alimony decreased or discontinued.
Keep in mind that this answer is given based on the scanty information you have provided. My answer may change based on other information. Further, you cannot rely on this answer since you have not retained me as your attorney. To be sure that you have accurate information and direction, you should consult with an attorney. Good luck.
