They merely dated, and were already broken up at the time they had a child. “Kim was hoping they’d live happily ever after,” a source claimed at the time. “Kim knew Benicio just considered her a fling. Then when she ended up pregnant , Benicio said he wouldn’t marry her and didn’t want a relationship – but he’d support the baby.”

Stewart talked about her pregnancy during an interview with Hello! Magazine, and how del Toro continued to support her throughout. “The whole family, including Benicio, was at the hospital and my mom and Benicio were in the delivery room with me,” she revealed. “Benicio’s very involved; he and Delilah have a very special bond. She definitely looks like her dad, but she has my legs and eye color.”
In 2013, Star Magazine reported that Stewart wanted to have a second child, and that she wanted del Toro to be the father. “She said she wants to give Delilah a sibling,” an insider claimed. “She said she couldn’t imagine having a baby with any other man.

Both Stewart and del Toro have taken an active role in raising their daughter. In 2016, the former couple were seen playing with Delilah at the California Science Center in Los Angeles. Stewart said that having a child changed her life, and the way she approached her career. “I honestly never, ever thought that I could love anything as much as I love her,” she told HELLO. “I had her at the right time. I got all the partying out of my system and I just wanted to be with her. I’ve been a stay at home mother since she was born and I’ve loved every second.”
Del Toro said that having a child has forced him to become more patient. “I’ve learned it’s important to compromise,” and to be “even-keeled” when she is “throwing a tantrum,” he said. Del Toro has also maintained a close relationship with Stewart’s father, pop legend Rod Stewart. “Who would have thought it?,” he jokingly said. “I told a friend from school and he goes, ‘Bro, if I told you, ‘I see in your future that you’ll go to Disneyland with Rod Stewart,’ you would have said, ‘No way.'”
