Mel Gibson is a father for the eighth time. The mega Australian star and his Russian fiance Oksana
Grigorieva have welcomed a baby girl. The baby was born on Friday, ahead of schedule by a few weeks reports RadarOnline.com, but mom and baby are doing well and at home already.
The affair which was reported earlier this year was first discovered in
Costa Rica when pictures of the intimate couple surfaced. In April of 2009, Robyn, Mel's wife of 29 years filed for divorced shortly after the pictures became public.
The news was followed by Mel's confession that he was indeed romantically involved with the young Russian musician and composer who is still hoping to have a successful career.
Oksana has another child, a son with Welsh born, English actor Timothy Dalton, who played James Bond from 1987 through 1994. Mel has six sons and one daughter with Robyn.
Regarding infidelity accusations, the actor stated in his divorce papers that he and wife Robyn had been officially separated since August of 2006. No news yet of a wedding date with his Russian fiance.
The actor has a new movie coming out, Edge of Darkness with a release date of January 29, 2010. See trailer below.
Most of us have grown up with Mel Gibson thrilling us on the big screen, and while the news of a baby is always good news, the obvious strain brought upon by the end of his almost 30 year marriage is evident on his face.
Always a fan, and not being privy to intimate details prompts me not to pass judgment.
Here’s wishing him, his family and his endeavors all the best
Leave comments below, and Thank you.

Mel Gibson - 8 kids! Wow. Your so right, his face does show the strain of his marriage ending. He looks a bit older. The Edge of Darkness is gonna be good! A real thriller with twists and turns!
While I've always enjoyed Mel Gibson's movies, I've started having some issues with some of his views that have started to be made public over the years. Let's just hope that all goes well with this new child, tho.
