Hugh Grant, known for his roles in the popular British comedy series Four Weddings and a Funeral and Paddington, is finally tying the knot. The Hollywood star, who has been referred to as one of the UK’s most eligible bachelors, will marry Anna Eberstein, the mother of three of his children. A photograph of the wedding banns has been posted in several newspapers.
Grant, 57, has five children total, including two with former partner Tinglan Hong, Tabitha and Felix. Eberstein gave birth to her first child with Grant, a son, in 2012. They then had a daughter together in December 2015. In March of this year, Grant’s ex-girlfriend Liz Hurley revealed that the couple had welcomed a third child but their gender remains unknown.
The marriage is expected to take place soon after Grant’s split from his second wife, French actress #MeToo activist #Angelina Jolie.
In March 2018, Grant’s ex-girlfriend Liz Hurley revealed that Grant and his wife Eberstein welcomed their third child together, but the gender was unknown at the time. This is not the first child for either of them as they have previously had two children together: a daughter in 1996 and son in 2000.
Grant is best known for his roles in films including Four Weddings and a Funeral (1994), Notting Hill (1995), and Paddington 2 (2014). He has also played prominent roles in television dramas such as A Very English Scandal where he plays disgraced MP Jeremy Thorpe, which premiered on BBC One last year.
However, it is worth noting that Grant has been involved in legal trouble before. In June 1995, he was famously arrested in Los Angeles for lewd conduct with prostitute Divine Brown. After pleading no contest to the charge, he was fined $800. Police officers in an unmarked vehicle followed him in the car after spotting him picking up Brown in a notorious area for prostitutes.
Grant has since apologized for his “insane” behavior. In addition to his legal troubles, Grant has also been the subject of controversy over his marriage. In November 2013, he was sued for libel by a man who claimed that he was defamed in a newspaper article about Grant’s private life. The case was eventually settled out of court in May 2014.
Overall, Grant’s personal and professional endeavors have been widely recognized, but also controversial due to his past legal issues and marital problems.
It has been reported that a prominent actor will be paid a substantial sum of money as compensation by the media company MGN, and will donate this amount to the campaign group Hacked Off. According to the reports, the star has decided to take legal action against MGN for phone hacking on an "industrial scale", which he believes was committed with full knowledge and consent from senior members of the company's editorial team.
The actor has expressed his belief that MGN's actions were morally wrong and called for another public inquiry to be conducted in order to uncover the truth behind the allegations. He stated that he hoped this would help bring justice to those who have been affected by the scandal and ensure that such behavior is not repeated in the future.
MGN has responded to these claims by expressing its "deep regret" over the alleged acts and describing them as "morally wrong". It has also stated that it is committed to investigating the matter thoroughly and taking appropriate action if necessary. The company has acknowledged that it has faced significant challenges as a result of the scandal and has made efforts to improve its standards and practices in response.
In conclusion, it remains unclear how much the actor will receive in compensation but it is clear that he hopes that this case will serve as a reminder of the importance of protecting individuals' privacy rights in the digital age. Additionally, it is hoped that this situation will lead to further scrutiny of media companies' practices and promote greater transparency in their dealings with journalists and sources. Ultimately, it is up to all parties involved to work together to ensure that such incidents do not occur again in the future.
