Soap star, Jack Wagner, discovered earlier this month that he has a 23-year-old daughter he never knew existed.  Her name is Carrie and her mother had a fling with Wagner in the 80's. She gave the baby up for adoption and recently her foster parents hired a PI to find her bio parents.  The investigator led her to a concert in Boca Raton, Florida, where Jack was performing with Rick Springfield. Carrie caught Jack right before he went on stage, told him the story and then hugged. Jack was so smitten, he invited Carrie to another show
the next day ... and introduced her to the entire audience.
