Geordie Shore’s Scotty T has become a father for the first time, after welcoming a baby boy with a university student from Newcastle, Daily Mail reports.
According to the report by Daily Mail, Geordie Shore’s Scotty T, 37, reportedly met the unnamed student on a night out in her early twenties, while he was ‘sofa surfing last year’.
The pair – who are not planning on becoming a couple – have agreed to share parental responsibilities of their son, two months.
Scotty is also said to have been present at their birth of his first child.
‘He is normally the life and soul of the party when he’s out so I imagine he’s been on his normal night out being very rowdy and and obviously met some girl’, a source told The Sun.
‘I know his mother and she’s a really lovely person, but he is a bit of a wild card. His mum would just be happy that this would be the thing that would settle him down and get his head screwed on.’
His shock baby news comes after he was axed from Geordie Shore in March this year, following a driving ban and cocaine scandal.
The reality star, who made his return to the Paramount+ series last year, pleaded guilty in February to two counts of driving under the influence of a controlled drug, which was above the specified limit.
After pleading guilty, Scotty was fined £330 and banned from driving for a year.
Despite his big return after a two-year absence, sources reported that show bosses decided to drop him from this year’s series.
A source told The Sun at the time: ‘Scotty T will not be back for the next series of Geordie Shore, which starts filming later this spring.
‘While the Geordie Shore cast have never been expected to be squeaky clean, bosses couldn’t stand by his recent off screen antics.
‘At the end of the day, it’s not a good look for the show or MTV if they endorse cast members who drive whilst under the influence of illegal drugs.’
The source added that bosses had no choice but to not invite him back for the next series. Daily Mail contacted MTV for comment at the time.
The Celebrity Big Brother winner was stopped in Newcastle on October 18 last year.
The city’s magistrates’ court heard that he had 32 micrograms per litre of blood in his system while driving his Land Rover Discovery.
The legal limit is 10 micrograms, and he also had 800 micrograms of BZE per litre of blood – well above the legal limit of 50 micrograms.
Scotty T first joined the cast in 2012 for the fourth series and was continuously on the show until 2018.
The reality star then returned in 2022 for series 18, 19 and 23 and in 2019, he opened up about his battle with drugs.
He booked himself into a rehab centre facility in 2017 and spent two weeks recovering.
However, months later Daily Mail revealed he had been axed from the show by MTV bosses after he was pictured ‘snorting a suspicious substance’ and exposing himself to a female.
The reality star was told by MTV bosses at the time that he couldn’t take part in the next season due to his behaviour.
