Fonzworth Bentley is a dad

Sean 'Diddy' Combs' former personal valet and assistant Fonzworth Bentley is a dad.

The musician, author and TV personality has revealed his wife Faune Chambers gave birth to the couple's first child, Zoe, on 30 July (13).

And he tells Us Weekly magazine that he and pal Kanye West were set to become fathers on the same day.

The proud dad explains, "Kanye and I actually had the same due date but Kim gave birth earlier."

And he admits he and his wife are still recovering from the marathon delivery, adding, "Faune was in labour for 23 hours and pushed for four-and-a-half hours, all without pain meds (medications). There was no IV or anything. She did amazing and I'm so proud of her.

"Besides no pain meds, Faune gave birth at 6.26 am, but we left the hospital at 7.30pm that night."

Bentley is now hoping to arrange a play date for his daughter and Kanye's kid North: "We keep missing them. Talking about being fathers is our number one conversation now. It's awesome entering this next phase of life with a friend."
