Children resulting from affair? (5)

I believe the answer is:

issue

I believe this is a double definition.

'children' is the first definition.
(issue can mean someone's offspring)

'affair?' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

'resulting from' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for issue that I've seen before include "Copy of a magazine, for instance" , "Sprogs" , "Children; topic for debate" , "Continent" , "Offspring or one of publication" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
