Jude Law wants DNA test to confirm unborn child’s paternity

British actor Jude Law has demanded a DNA test to confirm the paternity of the unborn child being carried by actress and model Samantha Burke, who has claimed that the star is the father. The actor has vowed to stand by Burke, but has apparently told friends he wants to be “100 per cent certain” that the child is his, reported News of the World online.

“At the moment Jude doesn’t know for sure he is the father. He thinks he is, but he wants to be 100 per cent certain... if it is his baby girl he’ll be there for her every step of the way,” a friend of his told the newspaper.

The American model’s family is angered by his demand for a paternity test and said that his behaviour was not up to the standards of an English gentleman.

The family was said to be shocked by her pregnancy. They said Burke barely had any relationships or boyfriends before her fling with Law, making it hard for them to accept her sudden pregnancy, reported Sun online.

“Samantha’s family is finding this very tough because it is so unlike her. That’s part of the reason it is such a shock,” said a source close to the family.

“It’s not like she’s a man eater. In fact nothing could be further from the truth. She’s actually innocent and inexperienced when it comes to men,” added the source.

The insider claimed that Burke rarely had a boyfriend while growing up and Law was the first man in her life. The model and television star’s close friend from WJ Woodham High School in Pensacola, Florida, also vouched for her innocence.
