Thus, Carmel wants Gibson to take a paternity test. "I'm not doing it for his money," the News of the World quoted Carmel as saying. "I just want to meet the man I've always known was my dad - and for him to get to know his grandson. I'd love it if he recognized us as family. I'm not looking for a meal ticket. I am happy with my life."
