BBC star 'fathered child with stripper' before dumping her before birth

A top BBC star allegedly fathered a child with a stripper he has a sexual relationship with, it has been reported.

The unnamed star allegedly dumped his former flame after discovering she was pregnant with his child.

It's claimed the unnamed woman signed a gagging order to prevent the details of their six-month affair from becoming public news and impacting his career.

The woman making the claim said she believes her child "is not the only" child the star has fathered.

She claimed that the star had not paid maintenance towards raising her child and had not been in contact with them since her daughter was born.

The mum also claims that her child is aware of who she claims is her father and wants to meet him.

The unnamed BBC star reportedly met the woman while working on a show in the area she lives in.

She claims she met him in a nightclub where she asked the star to sign her shirt.

They then allegedly entered into a six-month fling, meeting whenever he was in the area.

The woman claims she would meet the celebrity in penthouse hotels, and he would leave her there while he worked before returning to her afterwards.

"In the six months we were together, we met up about five or six times. Then I fell pregnant. As soon as I told him, he said he couldn't have kids and denied she was his," she tells The Sun.

"He then blocked all of my numbers, changed his — and vanished."

She goes on to tell the publication that she allegedly contacted the star's lawyers, who demanded a paternity test to determine if her child was their client's.

The star allegedly attended the screening with a male relative despite strict rules to preserve the integrity of the result, according to The Sun.

According to the woman, results confirmed the child was a DNA match for the star's family but was unable to prove conclusively that the star was the father of her daughter.

"Everything matched. They were able to say without any doubt that the father was a familial match. But it stopped short of a paternal match," she says.

"It was a ridiculous situation — the suggestion being that instead of getting pregnant by him, it might have been his brother, dad, uncle or grandad."

The woman says she believes the male relative who accompanied the star to the test provided a sample to help prevent the star from being identified as the father.

Due to the inconclusive result, the star is not required to pay any child maintenance.

Speaking to the same publication, she adds that the star insisted she sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) that prevented her from talking about their brief fling, but the agreement does not cover her daughter - who is not allowed to try contact or talk to her alleged father until she turns 16, but is then free to do so.

She concludes by saying she has no regrets, and while she may have no money, she has a beautiful daughter from their brief union.
