SUPERMODEL Liz Hurley's baby Damian has still not been introduced to his film producer father Steve Bing, despite being flown out to Los Angeles to meet him.

　　The 37-year-old Austin Powers star flew to the United States last week with a view to taking her four-month-old son to meet his father for the first time -- hoping her former lover would finally bond with the child after months of legal wrangling over his paternity.

　　But just days after her arrival, it appears the meeting is "unlikely" to take place following a heated phone conversation between the pair.

　　A friend of the actress/model reveals, "Liz has been in LA for almost a week promoting a movie and they still haven't come to an arrangement.

　　"They have spoken on the phone, but there is so much bitterness there that it's almost impossible for them to agree on anything. Neither of them know whether they will be able to work anything out now. It looks very unlikely.

　　"Steve and Liz have even been hanging around in the same places. I'm really surprised they haven't bumped into each other yet. That would be quite an embarrassment for both of them."
