yes, it might. there are many other factors that the Court considers, so you need a divorce attorney's help on this.

Alimony is never black and white. Sit down with an attorney and discuss everything. My initial consultations are free (like most others on this site) so call me at 732/247/3340 to discuss.
Re: increase in alimony
If his income has increased, it depends on how your divorce or settlement agreement was worded, so an attorney would have to review it. However, you cannot use his new wife's income for this purpose.
