Pregnancy May Be Problematic For USA Star Landon Donovan

Tabloid ready to release story.

Sports Illustrated's website, SI.com, has broken the story that USA star Landon Donovan stands accused of paternity by a British woman.

According to S.I., a British tabloid is set to run a story in which a U.K. woman says she is pregnant with Donovan's child.

"I was informed of the possibility during the World Cup, and if I need to take responsibility, then I will provide the appropriate support," Donovan reportedly told SI.com.

Donovan and his wife, actress Bianca Kajlich, announced their separation last summer, though the split was said to be amicable. A divorce has not been finalized.

In fact, the two appeared to be close to reconciliation. In several recent interviews, Donovan publically thanked her for helping him mature and blew her a kiss after on-camera remarks at the World Cup.

In turn, Kajlich had posted supportive messages on her Twitter account for the USA's World Cup campaign in general and Donovan in particular.

"Man oh man. Tough loss. So proud of our boys..." Kajlich posted after the USA defeat to Ghana.

Donovan was a key part of the USA's World Cup campaign, scoring three goals before the Americans were ousted from the tournament.

In the winter of this year, Donovan went on loan to Everton Football Club and lived in Liverpool for ten weeks before returning to his hometown Los Angeles Galaxy club.
