‘Celebrity’ Calum Best – at the centre of a storm in Donegal this weekend – has agreed to meet the mother of his alleged love child.
The celebrity son of footballer George Best told Lorna Hogan he will take a paternity test to find out if four-and-a-half-year-old Amelia Hogan is his child.
Manchester-born Lorna turned up at the official launch of his new aftershave in Bundoran on Friday – a stunt which rattled the star.
The child and her mother attempted to hand Best the note which read: “To Daddy, Please take a DNA test so you don’t have to deny me anymore. I am your daughter, please have a heart and don’t put me through this anymore.”
Best was taken to a staff room to get away from her. Miss Hogan wants cash from the American.
She said: “He changed his mind and came back afterwards and we did talk. He said he would meet me again to discuss taking the paternity test.”
But an exasperated Lorna Hogan warned that if Calum Best fell through on his promise, she would continue to turn up at every public appearance to embarrass the star into taking responsibility for his alleged child.
“I will turn up at every launch, every public appearance. I will make it my mission until he faces up to his responsibilities,” she vowed.
“I will not rest, I will be there every time. I think I’m raising an important issue and giving single moms everywhere who are in my position the courage to do what I am doing.”
