Dennis Rodman Reveals North Korean Secret Of Kim Jong Un's Secret Daughter

Mar 21, 2013 01:15 PM EDT

Former NBA bruiser Dennis Rodman has apparently revealed that North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has a secret daughter.

North Korea has never officially said whether or not Kim has a child, although there has been speculation that his wife, Ri Sol Ju, had given birth recently.

The former NBA star told The Sun that the dictator's wife revealed the two had two children together. It was believed Kim Jon-Un got married in 2009 and had 2 children, but the secretive country would reveal anything. However, Rodman says, "She kept talking about their beautiful baby daughter."

Rodman also noted that the isolated, communist regime places importance on secrecy.

"I won't tell you if the toilets were made of gold or anything like that, as I promised Kim I wouldn't talk about that stuff," Rodman told the paper. "There is a lot of stuff I can't talk to you about."

Rodman's slip is the latest in clues that the North Korean leader is in fact a dad, although experts said if it had been a son, the family would have trumpeted the birth.

Rodman, 51, was in North Korea to film a documentary called "Basketball Diplomacy," which is about a game between the Harlem Globetrotters and the North Korean team.

Referring to Kim, Rodman described him as a "normal guy."

"I shook his hand and called him Kim-I didn't call him Prince or Supreme Leader or anything. It is crazy what has happened to him," he told the tabloid.
