I kind of let it go for years, but it was my daughter in 2011, [who] suggested we go meet him.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There&#8217;s always been the big question mark, only because he refuses to take a (paternity) test.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>According to Sloan, his later mother, Canadian actress <strong>Kathy McNeil<\/strong>, and Shatner had a brief romantic relationship when the two worked in Toronto.
