Wasn't there a movie/book that mentioned that JB had a daughter?

In both the book and movie,
On Her Majesty's Secret Service, James Bond was married to La Comtesse Teresa Draco di Vicenzo (better known as Tracy), who was the daughter of the
Capu (boss of all bosses) of the
Union Corse, or the Corsican mafia.
Shortly after the wedding, on their way to their honeymoon, Bond and Tracy were ambushed in a drive-by shooting by Ernst Stavro Blofeld, the head of SPECTRE (SPecial Executive for Counterintelligence, Terrorism, Revenge and Extortion). Tracy was killed in the firefight.
The pre-credits of the film
For Your Eyes Only shows James Bond visiting the grave of his late wife.
In Fleming's book,
You Only Live Twice, James Bond suffers from amnesia from a blow to the head after killing Blofeld and destroying his castle of death. He recuperates in a Japanese fishing village and takes up with his guide, Kissy Suzuki. As Bond slowly recovers and begins his long journey back to England it's hinted that Kissy is pregnant with Bond's child; if I remember correctly a short story by Raymond Benson (the current author of the James Bond series of books) further develops this little twist in 007's life. (It appeared a few years back in
Playboy.)
