Samantha Burke, pregnant with Jude Law‘s baby, held a news conference several months ago in Florida to ask for privacy. She made a statement in front of her mother’s home, in the presence of her attorney.
After introducing herself, she said, “I would just really appreciate if everyone would respect my privacy.” Her lawyer read the following statement:
“Ms. Burke can confirm that she did in fact have a relationship with Mr. Law and that she has informed Mr. Law that she is expecting his child later this fall. Since informing Mr. Law of the pregnancy, he has been nothing but responsive and supportive of Ms. Burke and the pregnancy. Mr. Law and Ms. Burke are committed to the health, safety and well-being of this child throughout the pregnancy and after the child is born.”
UPDATE: Samantha Burke gave birth to daughter Sophia on Tuesday night, September 22, 2009. The 24-year-old mother of Jude Law’s baby is reported to be doing well. See first baby photos here.
