Jack Wagner Reunites with Long-Lost Daughter


There
may be an extra place setting around Jack Wagner's dinner table this
holiday season – and not just because he and longtime girlfriend Heather
Locklear are no longer together.

Wagner, 52, discovered earlier
this month that he has a long-lost 23-year-old daughter from a "fling"
he had with the girl's mother in the late 1980s, TMZ reports.

The
girl, named Carrie, introduced herself to Wagner backstage at a Nov. 4
concert in Boca Raton, Fla. where the actor was performing with Rick
Springfield.

Less than two weeks after the encounter, Wagner and
Locklear announced they had called off their engagement, saying planning
their wedding was not allowing them enough time to spend with their
children.

Reports say Carrie, who was given up for adoption as an
infant, had recently tried to track down her birth parents, a search
that led her Wagner. Sources told TMZ that the two embraced at the
Florida concert and, at a later performance, Wagner introduced her to
the entire audience.

The newly expanded family appeared in public
this week at the taping of the Hollywood Christmas Parade Tree Lighting
Concert at Universal Citywalk, which will air Dec. 12 on the Hallmark
Channel. Carrie and Wagner's two other children cheered their father on
as he performed two songs.

"They were completely having fun,"
according to an onlooker. "[Wagner] was in great spirits with his
family. They were all celebrating together … The kids totally supported
their dad, which was really cute."
