Ryan Phillippe dating Disney star

Los Angeles - Ryan Phillippe has reportedly been dating former Disney star Demi Lovato.

The Lincoln Lawyer actor has been seeing the 18-year-old singer and actress in the last few months, but things cooled since Ryan became a father again with his ex-girlfriend, Alexis Knapp, in July.

A source told the E! news service: "It was really hot and heavy for a while," but added Demi wasn't aware Ryan, 36, was to become a father for the third time "until it basically happened. It kind of threw her for a loop."

Ryan also has two children, Ava, 11, and Deacon, seven, with ex-wife Reese Witherspoon.

Ryan was present when Alexis gave birth to a daughter, who she has named Kai.

A spokesperson for the 21-year-old actress said, however: "She has never asked Ryan for any help, nor does she expect it."

Ryan, who dated Alexis in 2010, has been supporting her in the later stages of her pregnancy, although he is said to be waiting for the results of a paternity test to prove if he is the father.

A source said: "He is a good father, and whether this is his baby or not, he wants to do the right thing and be supportive."

Ryan also had an on/off relationship with actress Amanda Seyfried earlier this year.
