CLAPTON'S SHOCKING LOVE LETTER FROM DEAD SON

Rocker ERIC CLAPTON received the shock of his life days after the funeral of his four-year-old son - a love letter from the tot.


ERIC CLAPTON

Little CONNOR wrote "I love you" on a scrap of paper and posted it to his dad in 1991, days before he fell to his death from the window of his mother LORY DEL SANTO's Manhattan, New York City, apartment.

Del Santo, who was then Clapton's girlfriend, forgot about the love letter in the traumatic days that followed and was left stunned when it appeared at the rocker's home in London.

She tells US news show ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT, "The baby was trying to write, he learned how to write and he said to me a few days before... 'Oh mommy, I want to write a letter to daddy... what shall I write?' and I said, 'Well, write 'I love you'.'

"He wrote that and we posted it like a regular letter, so when we arrived in London, he (Clapton) receives the mail - this was after the funeral... He opened (it) up and it was his (Connor's) letter. That moment I cannot forget."
