Dex is too old to be Dante son. I would guess Jagger more than Jason.
If he is Dante's kid, whose his mother? Or even Jason's who would the mother be?
If Dex just has to have a character connection to canvas, I'd rather see him be Dante's son rather than Sonny's or Jason's. Plus, it would add to the dynamics and give more interesting story telling as he would be Sonny's grandchild and wouldn't necessarily have to be tied to the mob for the rest of his life and be a good guy for Joss to have as a partner as long as writers allow the relationship to continue.
I thought he was Dante's kid from the start, cause it was obvious in a few early scenes, that Dante wasn't sure if he trusted him. They had a few scenes that made me think there was something there. But, after that, they never had much interaction or any scenes together, so I thought it was gonna be someone different. We never found out what the big secret about Dante's past is. The one he and Cody talked about at first. I thought maybe when he was a teen, he got someone pregnant and he thinks, she either miscarried or terminated. But maybe she actually kept the baby, or gave him up for adoption, and he's Dex. And if so, Dex probably doesn't even know about it.
Ridiculous! No way! Way too close in age!
I would like this…. Dante and baby mama were 15, her family sent her away so Dante had no idea of her pregnancy. She gave Dex up for adoption
I think Brenda is Dex's mother. Many years ago. Dante was hired to protect Brenda and it turned out she was pregnant, so Dante covered for her and said the child was his. He later signed off that the child was not his. Carly tried to interrupt the wedding claiming Danta had been with Brenda to Sonny. Dante stepped up and told Sonny what the real truth was and told Carly off. Sonny and Brenda finished there vows.
I think Brenda is Dexs birth mother. Back in the day Dante was hired to protect Brenda and she was pregnant at the time. So Dante claimed to be the father of this baby to protect them both from the real father. When they were safe, he signed off all rights to the child. when Sonny and Brenda were about to get married, Carly stood up and told Sonny about Danta and Brenda having a child together. Dante stepped up and told Sonny the truth then told Carly off and said that it was nobody's business. Sonny and Brenda got married.
I still say Jason is Dex's father. There are too many similarities between the both. Both men's postures are the same and they both care about family and Dex will be safe from sonny.
