Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

Husband and I were separated for 5 years due to him molesting two of my children (his step). Five years probation lifetime registered as SO. He has been giving me money every month, both of us claim on taxes. Will I be able to get spousal support if I divorce? Due to his offense, lost my job which paid over 65K.
