Jude Law has become a father for the fourth time after the woman he had a brief affair with gave birth to a baby girl last night.
Samantha Burke has reportedly named the child Sophia, but Jude is yet to meet his newborn daughter and wasn’t present at the birth.
“Besides the financial support, he’s not involved,” a source has told People magazine, but in an earlier statement the actor, who has three children with ex-wife Sadie Frost, said he planned to be “a fully supportive part of the child’s life” — so it remains to be seen whether he’ll take on an active role as the girl’s father.
Tension is likely to be high between Jude and his former fling after she started a media bidding war recently for the exclusive first pictures of the baby and a warts-and-all interview about her relationship with the British actor.
There must have been something in the air this week because two other celebrity mums have also welcomed new babies… Sarah Michelle Geller has announced the birth of her baby girl, Charlotte Grace Prinze, and Ellen Pompeo has also welcomed a girl, Stella Luna Pompeo Ivery.
