It's the first child for Jon Dalton and Michelle Deighton

Jonny Fairplay's "deceased" grandmother has a great-grandchild.

Reality villain Jon Dalton, better known as "Survivor: Pearl Island's" Jonny Fairplay, and his girlfriend, "America's Next Top Model" competitor Michelle Deighton, welcomed a daughter in to their family on Wednesday, Jan. 16, reports Pagesix.com.

The little girl, named Piper Addison, is the first for the couple, who has been dating for two years.

Deighton, 23, was eliminated halfway through the fourth cycle of "America's Next Top Model." She claims a dubious notoriety for coming down with a mysterious skin disease, which turned out to be the treatable impetigo, during the show and thus scaring the bejeebus out the other wannabe models. Deighton also has taken up wrestling and appeared on "WWE Friday Night Smackdown."

Dalton, 33, is a wrestler who is best known for telling reality TV's "greatest lie" when he had it appear that his grandmother had died while he was participating on "Survivor." He used his competitors' sympathy several times to his advantage. Dalton last appeared with other B-list stars on CMT's "Ty Murray's Celebrity Bull Riding Challenge" and will continue to bring home the reality TV bacon with "Survivor: Micronesia -- Fans vs. Favorites," premiering Feb. 7.
