Hugh Grant is like the Tori Spelling/Kristin Cavallari of aging English actors: he just keeps having babies. All of a sudden, over the past four years, he’s been having babies nonstop with two different women. The first woman to have his baby was Tinglan Hong, a sometime lover/girlfriend who became pregnant when she was definitely NOT Hugh’s official girlfriend or anything. They welcomed their daughter Tabitha back in 2011. Then Hugh got Tinglan pregnant again (!!) and they had their son Felix two years ago. In between those babies, Hugh also knocked up a Swedish woman named Anna Eberstein and they welcomed their son, John Mungo Grant, back in September 2012.

For what it’s worth, I think Anna is closer to being Hugh’s official girlfriend than Tinglan ever was. Even though he got Anna pregnant when Tinglan was pregnant with Tabitha (this is giving me a headache), he actually goes out in public with Anna and they seem to have some kind of (open?) relationship. Also, for what it’s worth, I think he bought fancy houses for both women and their children and by all accounts, he spends time with all of his kids… although he lives separately from the mothers and maintains his own space, and the kids live exclusively with their mothers. Anyway, the photos in this post are of Hugh and Anna spending time together last year. Guess what? He got her pregnant again. For the love of God!

Swedish television producer Anna Eberstein is pregnant and it could be Hugh Grant’s fourth child, it has been claimed. The 35-year-old, who already has a three-year-old son with the actor, was spotted with what appeared to be a baby bump while walking in Chelsea, west London, on Thursday. Her outing prompted speculation the British star, who also has two children with another woman, is set to become a father again.

The Sun claimed a source confirmed the news and said the actor, 55, has told friends the baby is a girl. They said: ‘He is very happy. He loves being a father and is now getting used to it.’

But representatives for Mr Grant are yet to comment on the claims. Mr Grant and Ms Eberstein were pictured together multiple times over the summer. They were spotted watching a tennis match in Paris in May and the pair also watched the Wimbledon Men’s Final together in July. Their first child, John Mungo Grant, was born in September 2012.

Mr Grant’s involvement was only revealed when his full name appeared on the birth certificate after it was re-registered in 2013. The actor also has two other children – Tabitha, four, and Felix, two – with Chinese-born receptionist and actress Tinglan Hong.

Is this the new normal? The thing is… everyone involved is an adult, and there’s no indication that Hugh has lied to these women or misrepresented himself to them in any way. I think he just happened to find two women (at the same time) who wanted to have babies and didn’t really care if he ever married them or even wanted to be in a serious relationship. There’s no indication that either woman was or is looking for a more “traditional” life with him. They have the babies, he buys them nice homes and seems to financially support them so they don’t have to work and they can be full-time moms, and he gets to be a dad without a lot of muss or fuss. It all seems to work out rather beautifully, and the ladies seem happy enough because he keeps getting them pregnant. So… even though it’s super-messy, it’s probably healthier than what a lot of people have. Isn’t that weird?
