Kourtney Kardashian in paternity drama

This is how RadarOnline and TMZ are reporting this story...

Model, Michael Girgenti pictured above has claimed that he fathered Kourtney Kardashian's son Mason amid a steamy love affair.

But before taking the case to court, Michael Girgenti reportedly wrote an impassioned letter to the reality star urging her to submit to a DNA test.

According to RadarOnline the letter, dated 23 April, stated that the 26-year-old male model wished to avoid dragging Kourtney and her partner Scott Disick to court.

'My attentions [sic] are not to hurt the family you've created with Scott,' Girgenti wrote.

'Please take this final request for a DNA test seriously,' he wrote before taking on a more stern tone: 'Because if you don't, I will be forced to take legal action and sue.'  I don't believe this guy, he is just looking for cheap publicity...


He continued: 'I assure you I don't take being a father lightly. I will be a great father to Mason.'

Last week, Girgenti filed paperwork at a Los Angeles County Superior Court in a bid to get joint custody of the three-year-old child alleging he had unprotected sex with the reality TV star nine months before Mason's birth.

The lawsuit documents the alleged relationship between Kourtney and Michael, which he claims heated up in August 2008, and continued with months of texting in which she told him her relationship with Scott was 'on the outs' and 'she wanted to hang.'

According to gossip website TMZ.com, Michael wants the judge to order DNA tests for Kourtney, Mason and her long-term boyfriend Scott Disick - who is father to her daughter Penelope, 13 months.
A hearing has been set for next month.
