American model Samantha Burke has released the results of a DNA test which "conclusively" proves Jude Law fathered her baby.

The 24 year old hit headlines earlier this year when it was revealed she had fallen pregnant after a brief fling with the actor while he was filming new movie Sherlock Holmes in New York.

Burke gave birth to little Sophia last month and she went ahead with DNA testing to prove the child's paternity.

The model's representative, Eileen Kock, confirmed Law as Sophia's father.

She says in a statement, "Samantha can confirm that DNA testing has conclusively established that Jude Law is Sophia's father."

Law's publicist refused to comment on the statement, adding, "We don't discuss this. We consider it an entirely private matter."
