"Sometimes in life things aren't planned and they may even scare you at first, but they end up being a blessing, that is how I feel about having a daughter," he says in a statement to Us Weekly on Thursday, Oct. 24. "I'm looking forward to being a parent to her." (Pauly D, real name Paul DelVecchio, also tweeted a similar sentiment on Thursday.)

Pauly D only recently found out that he was a father. "She contacted him after the baby was born. He of course had to take precautions before believing the baby was his, but he is definitely excited to be a dad," an insider told Us. "Pauly is taking responsibility and will be in this child's life one way or another."
