And I have sort of following this but I’m assuming that the courts did not require the “partner” to pay child support to the bio mom. I had a similar case where the partner was allowed visitation but it was generally acknowledged that she had no obligation to pay support.
The so-called partner had no legally recognizable relationship to the child, neither based on genetics, nor on adoption, not on marriage. It’s baffling to me why “partnerluv” would have any rights or responsibilities in this case.
