I have a paper to which I am 3rd author from my previous postdoc, and recently I got another postdoc in another institution. Is it fair and ok to add the new affiliation now, at the proof stage?

2Related question: What should someone who works at a tech company that isn't associated with the work list as affiliation?. On crucial (possibly unanswered) question in this regard is whether the affiliation is a certain form of giving credit, or rather an indication of how the author can be contacted. – O. R.

Yes. You could insert a footnote saying that the research feeding into the paper was carried out and completed while you were affiliated with university -1 in their lab 'so and so'.
This way, everybody is happy, and you're transparent about your whereabouts.
