Sean Combs has agreed to financially support the 15-month-old child of Atlanta resident Sarah Chapman after DNA tests proved that the baby is, indeed, his daughter.

“At first, I wasn’t sure if this was my child,” he said. “Now that it has become clear she is, I will take care of her for the rest of her life.”

Diddy, 37, tells the New York Daily News’ Rush and Molloy that he’s “committed to being a good father” to his daughter, Chance, and sources tell the newspaper that he has already worked out visitation and support terms with Chapman.

When Essence magazine asked Diddy’s longtime girlfriend, Kim Porter, 36, whether news of the out-of-wedlock child was a factor in their June split, she replied, “Hmmm…Well, that definitely was part of it.”

Combs and Porter welcomed twin daughters Jessie James and D’Lila Star last December. The former couple also has an 8-year-old son, Christian. Combs has a 13-year-old son, Justin, with ex-girlfriend Misa Hylton-Brim.
