Britain's most ~~~~less father is having another four children - and is apparently 'engaged' for the third time in three months.
Unemployed father-of-10 Keith Macdonald - who pays just ?5 a week to support his offspring - will cost taxpayers more than ?2 million by the time all his youngsters reach 18.
He has got two new girlfriends pregnant, is having another baby with an ex and a fourth woman who was already known to be having his child has discovered that she is having twins.
But it remains unclear whether the latest pregnancies will make Keith, from Washington, Tyne and Wear, a father-of-14 or of 19.
The 25-year-old has admitted he has eight youngsters - and he now has another six on the way.
However, one of his former lovers has claimed he already has 11 children - so when the next eight are born he will have 19 in total.
He is now engaged to marry 32-year-old unemployed Amy Ward, from Chester-le-Street, Tyne and Wear, and she is expecting his child.
Danielle Little: Got pregnant in August and has now discovered she is expecting twins
Unemployed Emma Kelly, 18, and 21-year-old ex-girlfriend Clare Bryant - have also both recently been made pregnant by the ~~~~less father, it emerged today.
And another one of his expectant partners - 24-year-old Danielle Little - has just found out that she is expecting his twins.
The news that Macdonald, from Washington, Tyne and Wear, is expecting a further four children emerged in the week that Conservative politician Howard Flight said that welfare cuts would 'encourage the poor to breed'.
He said: 'We?re going to have a system where the middle classes are discouraged from breeding because it?s jolly expensive, but for those on benefit there is every incentive. Well, that?s not very sensible.?
It remained unclear when Macdonald, who has been in and out of prison, will tie the knot with his expectant fiancee Miss Ward.
This week she said: 'We love each other and he has moved in with me'.
But Macdonald was also engaged to unemployed Danielle Little, from Sunderland, in September.
He had promised to marry 19-year-old beautician Sarah Armstrong from Chester-le-Street in the same month when he discovered she was pregnant.
Miss Little warned Miss Ward about the ~~~~less father on Facebook - but she reacted with fury in a post on the site.
She wrote: 'Some people just don't get on with their own lives and just like to cause s*** for other people.'
She was listed as 'in a relationship' with Macdonald.
On Thursday she posted about how she was looking forward to 'getting lots of cuddles' from Macdonald.
She added: 'Amy Ward is sat chilling with a few cans and our lad is off his head. He makes me laugh'.
However, when she was contacted she denied being pregnant, said she had split from Macdonald and was now in a relationship with someone else.
Unemployed: Keith Macdonald, 25, is on disability benefits because of a 'bad back'
But expectant mother Clare Bryant, who gave birth to one of Macdonald's children in April, admitted she is pregnant by him again - although they broke up 10 days ago.
She claims he has been urging her not to have an abortion.
'I'm 16 weeks gone. If it's a boy I'm going to call him Laken,' she told the Sunday Times.
'I was going to get rid of it but he said he wanted it.
'He has totally cut all contact but the thing is I always said I would never take the kids away from him even if we did move on. I'm not like that, he's just being pathetic.'
The father, who has met most of his conquests at bus stops, claims ?68.95 per week in disability benefits because he has a bad back and ?44 per week in income support.
He has previously said it was 'not his fault' he had fathered so many children.
'I use condoms, but they always seem to split,' he said.
Just two months ago he said he had no plans to have more children.
?I don?t want any more kids. I haven?t got any plans to have any more. All these girls are playing games with me and I don?t want the aggravation,' he said.
He fathered his first child when he was just 14.
By the time each of his 14 children are 18, they will have cost the state ?50,000 in child tax credits, ?20,000 in child benefit while each mother could receive ?30,000 in income support and ?50,000 in housing benefit.
Jill Kirby, director of the Centre for Policy Studies, said the benefits system encouraged ~~~~less parenting.

'The case of Macdonald is an extreme example but it also reflects the behaviour of other men whose lives follow a similar pattern,' she said.
'The women involved are in a sense as culpable as he is because they've clearly made no effort to guard against having a baby with someone they know will not be willing to help them support their child.'
Macdonald has previously denied that he has got 15 children.
'All these exes are saying different things about me, and a lot of it is lies,' he said.
'They're playing games. One of my exes has been saying I've got 15 kids to 14 women, but that's not true.'
Keith Macdonald was not immediately available for comment today.
