Jude Law promises Samantha Burke that hell meet their love child

Premiere Of "Sherlock Holmes" -Arrivals

Usually, I wouldn’t have given a second look to this tabloid report from The News of the World (via Showbiz Spy), but I think this one might be on the up-and-up. Apparently, Jude Law called his baby-mama Samantha Burke on Christmas Day and made a promise to visit their daughter Sophia for the first time “within a few weeks.” Previously, Jude seemed to want to “forget” his fourth child, but maybe he had a few drinks on Christmas and decided to check in on his baby-mama. Now, first of all, I believe this story because The News of the World reports that one of Samantha Burke’s friends told them the information (which has happened before), and because this information comes couched in Burke’s well-documented sketchiness. The friend also told the News: “She told us they would get back together but I think Jude just feels a responsibility to his daughter. Sam is also considering moving to London. It could be the career chance she wanted.” Yep. Sounds like my working theory on Samantha Burke – that the girl is batsh-t crazy and obsessed with forcing a relationship between herself and Jude.

JUDE Law has finally agreed to meet his lovechild.

The British actor has arranged to visit daughter Sophia — the result of a brief romance with model Samantha Burke — in Florida. The tot was born in September 2009.

Burke, 25, bragged to friends the Sherlock Holmes star phoned at Christmas to arrange a visit “within a few weeks”.

“She’s over the moon. She was hurt he had not seen Sophia,” a source told British newspaper the News of The World.

Sam, the insider said, hopes she can rekindle her romance with Jude — even though he is back with former flame Sienna Miller.

“She told us they would get back together but I think Jude just feels a responsibility to his daughter,” revealed the insider.

“Sam is also considering moving to London. It could be the career chance she wanted.”

Jude has three other children with ex-wife Sadie Frost.

I think Jude is a tool for many reasons involving this sketchy situation, but I don’t think Samantha is any kind of angel, or a wronged woman in any sense. I think she got what she wanted – a piece of Jude, a connection to him, a claim to some kind of fame. Personally, I don’t blame Jude for wanting to distance himself from Samantha, but I do think they should be able to work out some way he can be part of little Sophia’s life. That poor kid. Seriously.
