In his upcoming autobiography, Wyclef Jean says he and Lauryn Hill had an affair back when the Fugees were still together.  But everything went downhill when she lied to him and told him he was the father of her first-born son.  The kid’s real dad was Rohan Marley…

Today, it has become a little clearer why Lauryn Hill and Wyclef Jean can’t patch things up and get the Fugees back together.  It turns out their problems run a little deeper than we knew.

In his upcoming autobiography “Purpose:  An Immigrant’s Story”, Wyclef reveals that he and Lauryn were having an AFFAIR before the Fugees broke up.  (Wyclef was married at the time.  Lauryn was not.)

But it ended because she lied and told him he was the father of her first child.  The boy’s real father is Bob Marley’s son Rohan.

Wyclef says, quote, “In that moment something died between us.  I was married and Lauryn and I were having an affair, but she led me to believe that the baby was mine, and I couldn’t forgive that.

“She could no longer be my muse.  Our love spell was broken.”
