Kris Marshall is facing a paternity test after a neighbour alleged she is pregnant with his child.
The British actor has been with his girlfriend Kelly Eastwood for two years, but reportedly began an affair with the unnamed female neighbour last year.
My Family star Marshall split from the woman last month (Feb09) when she revealed she is pregnant - and he is urging her to undergo a DNA test to determine who is the father.
A source tells British tabloid the News of the World, "At first he didn't want anything to do with it and hasn't seen her since - but now he must have changed his stance as he now wants her to have the DNA test."
The source adds that the neighbour is "devastated" at Marshall's demand and claims she has had no other lovers.
A spokesman for Marshall says, "If it turns out positive he will hold up his hands and accept his parental responsibilities."
