There's no way we could have given her a halfway decent start in life. Yeah, I certainly do regret it. I missed it but we are seeing each other now, and we're trying to make amends for what went on. She had parents for 70 per cent of her life. She's only just lost her adoptive parents, so there was no point in me shouting it from the rooftops, 'I'm her father!' We all kept it quiet.
