The 26-year-old Irish hunk has spent the past 10 months wondering whether his ex-girlfriend Stephanie Davis' four-week-old boy Caben-Albi belongs to him but, after learning that he is his son last week, he got to meet the little one over the weekend.
A source told The Sun Online: "Jeremy spent the weekend in Liverpool and finally got to meet his son for the first time - and spent some time with Steph too.
"It was an emotional reunion between him and Stephanie but close pals were glad to see the pair finally putting their past behind him. Caben is well and truly their priority now - nothing else matters other than the health and happiness of the baby."
The former lovers have been at loggerheads since they split up in May last year following just five months of on/off dating but decided to put their differences aside last week when Jeremy took part in a paternity test to determine whether he's the father.
A source said earlier his month: "Stephanie and Jeremy are back on speaking terms.
"They're trying to rebuild a civilised relationship for the sake of Caben - they both knew that the situation had to change for things to move forward. It's going to be a slow process but they're gradually heading in the right direction."
However, friends are concerned that the pair will rekindle their romance because they're planning to spend a lot of time together for their sake of their little boy.
The insider explained: "There has always been a spark there even if it did end badly the first time round. They have a child together now - everything's changed."
Jeremy and Stephanie began dating after they met in the 'Celebrity Big Brother' house in January last year but their relationship came to an end after a series of blazing rows on holiday - where the 23-year-old actress seemingly conceived - in the spring time.
