Jude Law to Be a Father Again

The British star’s former girlfriend, whom he met last Christmas, is pregnant, confirmed the actor’s rep.

Law, 36, was surprised when the woman phoned him with the news.  His rep stated, "Following a relationship last year, Jude Law has been advised by the birth mother that he is to be the father of a child due in the autumn of this year. "He is no longer in a relationship with her but he intends to be a fully supportive part of the child’s life."

The Sherlock Holmes star is already the father of three children, Rafferty, 12, Iris, 8, and Rudy, 6, from his marriage to Sadie Frost.

According to the Daily Mirror, Law had been dating the mystery woman during the shooting of Sherlock Holmes in New York last winter.  The mother-to-be is seven months pregnant.
