Given the facts of your matter it appears that there is a factual and legal basis for your spouse to file a petition to modify if not eliminate the alimony paid to his "ex" given her work situation and the emergence of her new boyfriend that she is living with which reduces her net monthly expenses.
I suggest that a family law attorney be consulted for options.
