ER STAR TO FINANCIALLY SUPPORT LOVECHILD
LATEST: ER star GORAN VISNJIC has agreed to pay $1,800 (£900)a-month in child support for the baby girl he doubted was his.
The married actor admitted impregnating fellow Croatian Mirela Rupic in 2006 after she sued Visnjic, insisting he was the father of her child.
Rupic claimed the actor, who plays Dr. Luka Kovac on ER, accepted little Lana Lourdes was his daughter and sent monthly $1,000 (£500) cheques to help the single mum.
But when the money stopped, the angry mother launched a legal campaign and went public with Visnjic’s lovechild.
At a hearing in Zagreb on Tuesday (27Nov07), Visnjic’s lawyer revealed his client had abandoned plans for a paternity test and now recognised the child as his own.
In return for his child support settlement, Visnjic has been granted once-a-month visitation rights with the infant.
