A Lovely Child
Clapton, on the other hand, was of a completely different mind, according to Norman. When the child was born, Clapton believed it was “the one thing in [his] life that could bring good out of it,” according to his manager, Norman. Conor, as the young man would come to be known, was described as a cheerful, attractive young man with lovely blonde hair and cheerful, caring temperament.
Not Interested
Del Santo, on the other hand, is said to have been persuaded that Clapton did not want the child while she was pregnant with him. As Norman pointed out, a rock star’s interest in a woman seemed to decrease once he had captivated her attention. In the first trimester of her pregnancy, Del Santo allegedly informed Norman that one of Clapton’s managers had called her and requested that she kill the pregnancy.
