Gym, Tan... Baby! Inside Pauly D’s Custody Visits With Infant Daughter Amabella

For Pauly D, poppin’ bottles has a whole new meaning these days. Eleven months after his daughter Amabella was born, Breaking Celebrity News has learned that the Jersey Shore star has made fatherhood a priority, and has worked out a temporary custody agreement with his baby mama so he can regularly see his daughter.
“Although Pauly and Amanda are still at odds over custody, he has finally been able to get visitation with his little girl,” a close pal exclusively told Breaking Celebrity News.
The reality TV star (real name: Paul DelVecchio) confirmed last October that he had fathered Amabella with former Las Vegas fling, Amanda Markert.
Ever since, “He has seen Amabella a bunch,” the source says, even “having her for a few weekends on and off… And Amanda isn’t present during the visits.”
Sources told Breaking Celebrity News last year that Pauly D put in a request for full custody, but in the meantime, the MTV star has been spoiling his little girl with lots of clothes, toys and a “ton of Jordan sneakers” to match her daddy, the source said.
