Samantha Burke And Jude Law’s Baby, Sophia, Grace The Cover ‘Hello’ Magazine
Posted on 26. Oct, 2009 by CSS.
Jude Law’s lovechild made her big debut on the cover of London’s Hello! Magazine on Monday.
Sophia, five weeks old, was the result of a short-lived fling between the star and aspiring actress Samantha Burke, who he met while filming Sherlock Holmes in New York City last Christmas. Jude has made no plans to visit his youngest daughter and hasn’t even sent a present, according to the baby’s mother.
Despite the actor’s seeming resistence to get involved in Sophia’s life, Samantha remains optimistic about their future relationship.
“I am very hopeful it will work out for Sophia’s sake. He’s a great father to his three kids. She’s his daughter and I believe he’ll come through,” Samantha explains in an interview that reportedly earned her $300,000. “It would be great if we can have a friendship and remain cordial. Hopefully, he’ll be a big part of her life and she’ll be proud to have him as her father.”
Samantha also slammed “hurtful” reports branding her a golddigger: “I have never dated a guy for money. All my ex-boyfriends were just normal guys.”
Samantha’s agent revealed that Britain’s Hello! Magazine bought the photos and interview with Samantha for $300,000.
“Samantha may have got pregnant by accident but she’s a smart businesswoman. The child has rarely left the house since her birth and when Samantha has had to take her out for some reason or the other, her face is carefully covered,” an insider divulged to London’s Daily Mail on Sunday.

Jennifer Hudson & Son David Daniel Otunga Jr. ‘PEOPLE’ Photo & Interview
Posted on 08. Oct, 2009 by CSS.
PEOPLE Magazine landed exclusive rights to the first public photos of David Daniel Otunga Jr., the son of Academy Award-winning crooner Jennifer Hudson and her wrestler fiance David Otunga Sr.
Jennifer is in her first months of motherhood and the “Spotlight” star is opening up about her most precious moments with David Jr — who arrived Aug. 10.
“I love being nurturing and caring because I love to see other people happy,” Jennifer tells PEOPLE. “Who better to devote my time to than my own child?”
Check out the most interesting excerpts from J-Hud’s interview:
How hard was it keeping your pregnancy under wraps?“David and I were the only people who knew for a long time. I would forget I was pregnant, it was so easy. I didn’t have any morning sickness, no cravings either. I just thought, ‘Oh, well, we’ll wait until it’ll tell on itself.’ I didn’t show until I was seven months so that made it easy right there.”
Your son was delivered via C-section, what was your recovery like?
“Everybody told me how much it was going to hurt afterwards but I think I have a different tolerance for pain than others. By that night after I had the baby, I’m like, ‘Look, I can’t sit in this bed anymore. I’ve got to get up!’ I’ve been up and about since he was born. To me, the pain is no different than when you work out a muscle you’ve never worked out before and it’s sore.”
Would Jennifer like her son to become an entertainer like his Mom & Dad? “We’ll definitely encourage education. His father is an education fanatic so we definitely want him to get an education and go to school….My mom always said, ‘Whatever you want to do, I’ll support you as long as you’re happy.’ So I will do the same.”
