Florida model and aspiring actress Samantha Burke is pregnant and actor Jude Law is the baby daddy. According to her Babies ‘R’ Us registry, the child, reportedly a girl who will be named Sophia, is due on October 6.
Burke, 24, had a brief affair with Law in late 2008 that resulted in the pregnancy. According to Burke’s attorney, “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.”
The 36-year-old actor is set to appear in Hamlet on Broadway in October. His latest film with Robert Downey Jr., Sherlock Holmes, will premiere on Christmas Day.
Law has three children with ex-wife Sadie Frost; Rafferty, 12, Iris, 8, and Rudy, 6. View family photos below. Our friends at TMZ have a photo of the obviously pregnant Samantha Burke available here.
