7 Celebs Who Won’t Reveal Their Baby Daddy

When you’re a celebrity, your entire life is spent in the spotlight unless you take certain measures to protect your personal privacy. Although stars often struggle with keeping their business out of the limelight, some of them have decided to protect their kids’ privacy instead. For several famous women, this means keeping the identity of their baby daddy a secret. Perhaps this is because they want their children to speak out about their story on their own terms, or maybe it’s because the father isn’t involved. Here are the celebs that decided to keep the father of their children a secret and the reasoning behind it.

1. Mindy Kaling

Nobody really knows who the father of Mindy Kaling’s children, Katherine and Spencer, is. Some people think that it may be her old friend B.J Novak, and while the rumor doesn’t bug her, she’s decided to talk to her kids about it first. In an interview with Marie Claire, she said, “I want them to be old enough to talk to me about it” and remain “super cautious” to avoid rifts in the future.

2. January Jones

Jones has her baby boy Xander in 2011, and the most information she’s shared from the start is that she was starting a journey as a single parent and that privacy would be key to her journey. The “Mad Men” actress explained to The Edit that she knew she would be raising her son alone and was mentally prepared, even excited for the process. Jones claims that she doesn’t have room for anything more in her life, and having a partner would have just made everything more complicated.

3. Lauryn Hill

In 2011, Lauryn Hill had her sixth child. A lot of people thought it was Rohan Marley’s kid since he was the dad of her other children. But given the statement she made, this was clearly not the case. While she thanked fans for their concern, her statement discussed that although she and Mr. Marley had a complicated relationship, he didn’t ever abandon her while she was pregnant and that “our 5 children remain a joy to both of us.”
