Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

What is the process of a divorce if the wife has a baby with another man not her husband? And the father is not invovled, her left her when she was 2months pregnant. She has no idea where he is and doesn't want to file for childsupport. Will this effect our divorce process?

The Court may require you to do DNA testing.
