David Black

David Black is a minor character on A New Direction. He is the father of Kara Thomas and ex-boyfriend of Tabitha Thomas.

David and Tabitha had never been great communicators, this being the main catalyst of their inevitable breakup. Tabitha became pregnant during the roughest patch of their relationship. They attempted to work it out for the sake of her and the baby's health, but never succeeded.

They ended up dating for two weeks when Kara was two months old. Their biggest argument happened on the last day after Tabitha found out that David had been cheating on him throughout the early stages of their relationship. She decided to take full custody of Kara. David regularly visits and gets to keep her on some weekends.
