The teenage boy who is the father of Mary Kay Letourneau's new baby - the same boy she is imprisoned for raping - says he's overjoyed that she has given birth to their second daughter.
"I'm very excited and can't wait to go back and see my next baby," 15-year-old Vili Fualaau said from Paris. "I have two daughters and I'm a single father."Fualaau spoke to the syndicated television show "Inside Edition," which plans to air the interview today. The television show released selected comments from him on Sunday.
Fualaau is in Paris on tour promoting a book he wrote with the 36-year-old Letourneau, "Un Seul Crime, L'Amour" ("Only One Crime, Love"). The book, released in French in Europe earlier this month, is not yet available in the United States.
Letourneau, a former elementary school teacher, is serving a seven-year, five-month term for second-degree child rape for having sex with her former student.
She gave birth to their daughter, Georgia, Friday night at St. Joseph Medical Center. Letourneau was re-turned to prison Saturday.
Hospital officials would not say who was caring for the baby.
In his interview, Fualaau did not specify who would care for her but indicated it would be him and his family. Fualaau's mother is carrying for Letourneau's and Faulaau's first child, Audrey, who was born last year.
Fualaau said he was upset "that (Letourneau) is in jail and that I'm taking care of the kids alone . . . with the help of my family."
He also said it bothered him to have Letourneau separated from her new daughter.
"I feel bad that the mother has to be separated from her baby just a few hours after her baby was born," he said. "I wish that the mother could spend time with her baby and her other kids."
