If my girlfriend and I just recently had a baby and she is finalizing her divorce but is on her husband’s insurance until it is final, is she still covered?

I am wondering since I am the father of her child; is she disqualified because they were separated? We have been dating for over 2 years She is currently finalizing her divorce from her husband. She was on his insurance until the divorce was finalized. Is she covered since I am the father or is she disqualified because they were separated?
