Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

divorce/paternity
my wife was cheating on me and left me for another guy. She filed petition for divorce, we have daughter already. I found out months later that she was pregnant and has given birth. I dont have an attorney, my wife does.
She admitted to having the affairs and named the recent guy as the father to her new child in the written interrogatories I served her. Who has to pay for the paternity test to make sure that the child is or is not mine.
Her lawyer is telling me that I have to pay if I want to know. Should I have to go through this expense, since she was the one who put me in this situation? Please let me know asap, I do not have much time do so, or should I file an emergency hearing with the judge to determine who should pay for this???
