Jude's the daddy: DNA test proves actor Law IS the father of 24-year-old model's baby
Jude Law has apologised to his family for his fling with a 24-year-old model – after being told that DNA tests ‘conclusively’ prove he fathered her baby girl.
The 36-year-old actor, who made his New York debut as Hamlet to rapturous reviews last week, has now admitted to his ex-wife Sadie Frost that Sophia, who was born on September 22 to Samantha Burke, is his.
Her agent, Eileen Koch,said last night: ‘Samantha can confirm that DNA testing has conclusively established that Jude Law is Sophia’s father.
‘Check back in six months. Maybe she and Jude will be getting married.’
Jude now faces paying maintenance for Sophia’s living costs over the next 18 years, which experts estimate could total more than £2million.
The actor’s greater concern is said to be the damage to his image and to his relationship with Sadie and their three children, Rafferty, who turned 13 last week, Iris, eight, and Rudy, seven.
Jude and Sadie divorced six years ago, but remain close friends.
One source close to Jude’s family said: ‘Sadie is livid. She feels that he has put unnecessary pressure and upset on to the children and has put himself under financial strain, which impinges on their life.’
Another source close to the couple said: ‘He told Sadie that he only slept with her once. But now he has confirmed to her and his children that the child is his. He has reassured the children it will not affect their family times together.’
Jude’s UK publicist, Sarah Keene, said she was aware of Koch’s DNA statement but added: ‘We don’t discuss this. We consider it an entirely private matter.’
