Jude Law’s Babymama Calls A Press Conference To Plead For Privacy
Last week we learned the SHOCKING news that one of Jude Law’s sexual trysts resulted in an unplanned pregnancy and altho we were left stymied for a whole day wondering who the lucky girl impregnated with Jude’s seed was, we learned very quickly that her name is Samantha Burke … particularly because her lawyer released a statement to the media making sure everyone knew who she was. Since that time, Burke has released a statement to People magazine announcing the name of her unborn baby and then called a press conference to clear up any misconceptions about her relationship with Jude Law, her babydaddy.. Uh huh. Here are pics of Jude’s new babymama at her press conference and along with news of her baby name and her plea for privacy:
After Jude Law announced that he was going to become a father for the fourth time on Wednesday, now lawyers for mom-to-be Samantha Burke reveal in an exclusive statement to PEOPLE that they’ll be having a little girl named Sophia.
“Samantha, her mom, and her family can affirm that Jude has been responsive and supportive throughout the relationship and pregnancy, and know that he will remain so as a father once Baby Sophia is born,” says the statement. “Jude and Samantha remain committed to the health and well-being of this child, and appreciate your honoring her privacy during this special time.”
The lawyers for Burke, a 24-year-old aspiring actress from Pensacola, Fla., who had a brief relationship with the actor when he was filming Sherlock Holmes in New York City last year, also confirm that she wouldn’t be granting any interviews despite numerous requests. “This remains a private matter between Jude Law and Samantha Burke,” the statement reads.
HMMM … yes … but while she was not granting interviews, the press conferences have been comin’ hot and heavy:
The mother of Jude Law’s fourth child has slammed reports the actor has shunned all contact with her – insisting quotes attributed to her mum were “taken out of context”. Samantha Burke is seven months pregnant with a baby girl after dating the Brit star when he was shooting Sherlock Holmes in New York earlier this year (09). New reports allege Law has refused contact with Burke since finding out she was expecting his baby, with Burke’s mother reportedly going on the record to voice her concerns. Lea Burke was quoted as saying, “Samantha has no idea what is going on. She is very stressed out and upset. This was never planned and Jude didn’t want the baby. It was a total accident. This was no way planned. Hell, no. She was in shock when she found out she was pregnant and terrified to tell him. It would be nice if the father was around but that’s not going to happen because of his job and Samantha knows that. Samantha is staying positive and hoping Jude will get in touch. She really wanted to get hold of him, but he hasn’t called once.” Burke was so infuriated by the reports, she appeared in public on Friday (31Jul09) for the first time since news of her pregnancy broke, admitting: “It’s a hard time.” She stood alongside her spokesperson outside her home to confirm Law is “committed to the health and wellbeing of this child”. The 24 year old’s spokesperson says, “Samantha and her mother would like to be clear that comments attributed to her mother and media stories reported in the last 24 hours regarding Jude’s contact with Samantha and his involvement were taken out of context. Samantha, her mom and her family can confirm Jude has been responsive and supportive through the relationship and pregnancy and know that he will remain so as a father once baby Sophia is born. Jude and Samantha remain commited to the health and wellbeing of this child and appreciate your honouring her privacy during this special time.”
Ahhhh … I see … so what she really wants is privacy. Got it. Oh man, Jude is going to have a lot of fun with this chick bringing forth his baby into the world. And the fun is just beginning. At least Jude will have two boys and two girls … a practically perfect family!

Really? If she wanted privacy, she wouldnt have said anything in the first place and sure as hell wouldnt have called a press conference. I guess what anyone can do to get the spot light, no matter how humiliating the circumstances

She comes across like a complete idiot, and fame hungry loser. She should have respected Jude Laws other children. I hate women like her.

Two words say it all…”aspiring actress”. She should be ashamed of herself.

ok ok… so she calls A PRESS CONFERENCE to ask for PRIVACY. yeh, that makes sense.
how about not getting all the media involved in the first place?
seems a bit like a plea for attention and 15 mins of fame…

Having a baby is just biology. We don’t know the details and I would not want to speculate. Jude will do right by his child. He is a good man. He did not name the woman in his statement, out of respect for her privacy I suppose. But she apparently does not respect her own privacy as Jude does. The fact that she goes in front of the camera to talk about these things make me sad. Jude deserves better.

Dumb money hungry gold-digging bitch.

HAHAHAHAHA. I actually know this girl! She dated one of my coworkers here in Pensacola and he knew she was creeping around behind his back when she went for photoshoots in NYC, but never knew who she was with… GUESS WE KNOW NOW! Hahaha, oh man I love it!

Wanting privacy means holding a press conference?
