Diego did not mention who the mother of the baby was. Other than Franki, the actor was previously linked to actress Barbie Imperial.

Sources close to Diego, however, confirmed to Philstar.com that the mother isn't from the local show business industry.

Fellow celebrity dads congratulated Diego entering a new chapter of his life including Billy Crawford, Markus Paterson, and Troy Montero, especially as Father's Day will be celebrated this June 18.

Also sending well-wishes were Coleen Garcia, Angelina Cruz, Dominic Roque, Gil Cuerva, Sunshine Cruz, Jameson Blake, Ruffa Gutierrez, Enzo Pineda, Tim Yap, and Emanuelle Vera.
