We were first introduced to Alfie Patten, 13, when his 15-year-old girlfriend gave birth earlier this year to Maisie in Eastbourne, East Sussex.

Patten, just 12 when he slept with Chantelle Stedman was believed to be the baby’s father — until other classmates came forward claiming that they, too, slept with Stedman.

DNA tests concluded in March that Patten was not the father. Now, the Sun reports, that paternity tests reveal that Maisie’s father is 15-year-old Tyler Barker.

Barker, who originally wept when he heard his classmate Stedman was pregnant, now says he intends to care for this three-month-old baby. When he first confessed to his father Chris Ireland that he was more than swapping gum with the girl in the playground, he seemed to play it off that the Stedman took advantage of him. Barker’s 44-year-old father reportedly told the Sun that Stedman seduced his son while he was drunk. Barker then suspected that after making love, Stedman was going to "take care of it" and use the morning-after pill.

While the story has several unbelievable elements, teenage pregnancy is a very real problem around the globe. When the Sun first published photographs of the 13-year-old Alfie Patten, who appears no older than age 8, cradle little Maisie, Prime Minister Gordon Brown worried that the case would make the government look irresponsible.
