China Daily:51歲休?格蘭特晉升奶爸 前中國女友產(chǎn)女

Hugh Grant, the British actor, is "delighted"at becoming a father for the first time at the age of 51, his spokesman said on Tuesday. The Notting Hill star welcomed a baby girl in late September after a "fleeting affair" with an unnamed woman, believed to be a Chinese actress 19 years his junior. While the identity of the mother has not been disclosed nor details of the couple's relationship, the star has been linked to Tinglan Hong. On the day that the baby is said to have been born, Grant was reported to be at the Labour Party conference in Liverpool. On Tuesday night, a spokesman for the Bridget Jones and About a Boy actor confirmed the news but declined to say who the baby's mother was. "I can confirm that Hugh Grant is the delighted father of a baby girl," she said. "He and the mother had a fleeting affair and while this was not planned, Hugh could not be happier or more supportive. "He and the mother have discussed everything and are on very friendly terms." Hong, 32, was reported to have been showing a small baby bump in April when she was photographed leaving Grant's ￡3 million home in Chelsea, west London. US reports said Grant was no longer in a relationship with the mother of his child. The actor, one of Britain's most successful, is known for being publicity shy and rarely discusses his private life.
