If Nick decided that Kelly is his and went out of his way to cement that belief then he's the father.So true. Izzy and I discussed this a while back, and I thought a nice way to clear up any question of the biological father would be for Nick to see the paternity test, but for viewers to never know the test results. Nick would be a father because he biologically was or because he chose to be. Either way, Nick is a good guy who stepped up and put the child first during a very difficult situation.

It actually had to do with Adalind and the timeline for her pregnancy and the possibility that baby Kelly was not Nick's.Okay timeline - Adalind was with Meisner for a few days after Diana was born, recuperating and on the run. Kelly left with Diana within 24 hours of them arriving in Portland. Two - four days (?) passed between the kidnapping and Adalind performing the spell.
She didn’t have sex with Renard unless it was off screen. Renard was absolutely certain the second baby wasn’t his, and Adalind didn’t challenge him. Adalind was immediately put in the dungeon when arriving at the castle. She didn’t have sex with Viktor unless it was off screen, and Kenneth confirmed Viktor is sterile, and Adalind didn’t challenge him.
So when did Adalind have sex with someone other than Nick, unless she popped into a bar for a quickie between the time Kelly left with Diana and she arrived at Nick’s to perform the spell?
Do you not believe at all that Adalind having a child compelled her to make a better life for herself and her child? I know this has been debated to the nth degree and some will never believe Adalind capable of change. But Adalind had her powers back moments after Diana was born, which is all she wanted in the beginning. She could have made arrangement to trade the baby in exchange for the Royals leaving her alone, she could have given the baby to the Resistance in exchange for safe passage out of Europe, she could have heeded Kelly’s advice on the plane that being on the run with a child was a difficult way to live. But she didn’t do any of those things, and actually, told Kelly the Royals or whoever would have to kill her to get her baby.
So for me, Adalind had neither the time nor the desire to have sex with anyone. She wanted her daughter and was willing to do whatever was necessary to get her back.
