As regards the question whether he chose his gf or his daughter, he gave a very honest answer any good person would. The gf must know there's no comparison between her and the little girl. To rebuff either one would be insincere of him to come up with a lie. She adores the little girl anyway. Bear in mind, the genesis of the daughter is him, but the gf is encountered .
