JUDE'S LAW FOR LIVING

Whether it’s in Hollywood or at home, the 2020 baby boom is showing no signs of slowing down, and even British actor Jude Law says becoming a father of six this year caught him by surprise!

“I never imagined that I’d have so many children, but I love them all dearly and they definitely keep me young,” he recently said, following news that he and his wife Phillipa Coan, 33, who married in 2019, had welcomed a baby girl in September.

The couple’s daughter, whose name is currently being held under wraps, will join a five-strong brood of step-siblings.

The Captain Marvel star shares his three eldest children with first wife Sadie Frost, who he married in 1997. During their marriage, which ended in 2003, the couple had Rafferty, 24, Iris, 20, and Rudy, 18, before Jude’s short-lived fling with English model Samantha Burke in 2008 saw him welcome daughter Sophia, 11, in 2009. The actor’s second youngest daughter is Ada, five, who the BAFTA winner shares with musician Catherine Harding.

ONE BIG HAPPY FAMILY
