Nash is the Daddy! (Soap Opera Weekly 6/13/06)

Sorry, Antonio -- the DNA tests show that Nash is the father of Jessica/Tess' baby this week on One Life to Live.

Ironically, Nash is nowhere in sight when Jessica (yep, she's back!) and Antonio get the results. "There's a threatening note from Reston on the bed where baby Brennan is," explains Bree Williamson (Jessica/Tess). "Nash says, 'I've got to leave town. Reston is going to hurt me and the baby.' The moment Nash leaves, Tess lets Jessica out. She'll take care of the baby, because Reston won't hurt the baby when Jessica is out. When Jessica emerges, Antonio comes running in. It's a beautiful reunion."

But then the other baby booty drops: They learn Nash is the father. "Antonio takes the news like a champ," notes Williamson. "He's been a real big champion throughout this story. There aren't many other guys who would have sat by, especially when a hot waitress like Layla has been hitting on him.

"Jessica always looks on the bright side," adds Williamson. "Obviously, she didn't get the results she wanted, but on the other hand Tess didn't come out when she heard Nash is the father."

But what will happen when Daddy comes home?
