The National Enquirer, which broke the news about the affair John Edwards was having, now says a DNA test was done to confirm Edwards is the father of Rielle Hunter's baby.
This
news comes just days after Ms. Hunter was seen entering a federal courthouse in North Carolina to testify in a federal grand jury.
The grand jury was convened to listen to allegations that former Democratic Senator John Edwards illegally used campaign money to pay Ms. Hunter.
Edwards has
previously denied being the father of Ms. Hunter's 18-month-old girl and his aide Andrew Young said he was the father.
Skeptics do not believe Mr. Young's claim, however, as no father was listed on the birth certificate.
Young has ignored all media requests for an interview and he was also forced to testify before the federal grand jury.
During her book tour, John Edwards' wife Elizabeth said she is not sure if John is the father of the baby or not.
