Simple answers;

No and no.

She will have to start the whole settlement process all over again, and should briefly explain in that application the history of your relationship.

Your child will be a dual Thai/British citizen, so if born in Thailand you should obtain a British passport for him/her so s/he will not need a visa for the UK. Good idea to get a Thai one as well, whether born in Thailand or the UK, so they can enter Thailand without restriction, too.

For the British passport see How to apply from Thailand (First time applications).
