I'm looking for some words that mean a woman or a man has an affair with someone (not their spouse) and they are given a child.

I guess 'My wif has a baby with another guy' is appropriate way to say.

Is there another common way to say about this situation. In Japanese, we say 'he/she is a child between him and his paramour'.

I'm glad if I can know natural expressions.

Thanks

The child is illegitimate or is born out of wedlock.  It is, in cruder language, a bastard.   The parents are adulterers; they have committed adultery.
