When Liz, 55, gave birth to Damian a year after dating Steve in 2001, he insisted the child was not his.

Damian’s grandfather, real estate heir Dr Peter Bing, tried to prevent the Damian and his half-sister Kira from accessing their inheritance last year.
But an LA judge ruled that Damian and Kira, the daughter of Steve and ex-tennis pro Lisa Bonder, were beneficiaries to Dr Peter Bing’s trust.

The granddad had tried to claim Damian shouldn’t inherit the money because the model had never met his own dad and was “born out of wedlock”, according to court papers.
