Jono Castano has enjoyed his first Father’s Day with his newborn daughter Gia.
The 33-year-old celebrity personal trainer took to Instagram on Sunday to shares a photo with her baby, who lives with her mother Simone Holtznagel.
In the sweet photo, the proud father kissed his five-month-old daughter as they spent quality time together.
“Daddy loves you G. First Father’s Day!” she captioned the image.
The post comes just a day after Jono’s ex Simone hit out at him following the couple’s bitter split.
The 31-year-old model, who is raising the ex-couple’s daughter as a single mother, said Star Magazine that she “couldn’t change” the man she thought she loved.
“I wanted to set an example for my daughter, that’s something that changed for me. One day I thought, ‘What am I doing? This is not right.’ I would hate for her to be in that situation,” she said.
“At the end of the day, you have to do what’s best for you. No matter how many promises or whatever else people make to you, when they show you who they are, believe them. Because you can’t change people.”

Simone said she is happy to raise her baby, Gia, alone and is confident she made the right decision.
“I’ve never felt more confident about anything and I know I can do it alone. It’s a shame that I have to do it alone most of the time, but I couldn’t think of it any other way, honestly,” she said.
“What I’m doing feels right. The most important thing to me is that Gia is happy and healthy, and that I am happy and healthy too,” Simone continued.
“Because I firmly believe that if the mother is unhappy, it is difficult to have a happy child. And I feel that Gia right now is a reflection of me, as she is a very content and happy little girl.”

This comes just a day after Jono’s ex Simone Holtznagel lashed out at him following the couple’s bitter split.
Simone and celebrity personal trainer Jono welcomed Gia on Easter Sunday.
Jono recently confirmed that he and Simone decided to go their separate ways in May, just nine weeks after the birth of baby Gia.
“Who knows what the future holds, our goal is just to be the best parents for Gia at this stage,” she told Daily Mail Australia.
A close friend of the couple later revealed that Simone and Jono’s relationship had been destined to end for quite some time.
A source said The Daily Telegraph that several friends and family warned Simone that her modeling lifestyle was not compatible with Jono’s fitness influencer career.
