Shepherd - Mother of his child speaks out against the actor

The mother of 'Coronation Street's Jack P Shepherd's baby has reportedly claimed that he is refusing to acknowledge his son despite a DNA test proving that he is the father.

Sammy Milewski gave birth two months ago to Greyson, her child with Shepherd, who plays David Platt in the soap however she claims that the actor has yet to provide any financial support for his child.

In an interview with The People, she said: "I honestly thought that once Jack had proof that Greyson was his son he would do the decent thing.

"I really hoped he would accept responsibility. But obviously not. We got the results more than a week ago and he still hasn't been in touch. You'd think he would phone or even send a text.

"But instead, on the day that the results came through, I saw on Twitter that he was showing off a fancy new car. That was a real smack in the face.

"That car cost thousands and yet I've not had a single penny from him. It's not about the money but he hasn't even bought him a baby grow.

"The way he is behaving is pathetic and stupid. I wish we could just be friends for Greyson's sake. I didn't plan this. I certainly never thought I would end up as a single mother.

"I always dreamed of being married and settled before I had a baby. I wanted any child of mine to have a father I loved."

Shepherd already has a daughter with childhood sweetheart Lauren Shippey.
