Hugh Grant's daughter's name means "Happy Accident"

Posted by Adam


Despite reports claiming the tot — who was born in September following the actor’s brief fling with Chinese actress Tinglan Hong — had been called Jessica, Tinglan’s ex-boyfriend has now revealed she has been given a traditional Chinese moniker, with the English translation referring to her unplanned arrival.

Her mother has also given her the unusual nickname of ‘Bamboo’, which she is now known as.
“She told me when Hugh is in the country, he comes to see ‘Bamboo’,” said businessman Robert Hodge.

Robert — who dated Tinglan for 18 months and visited her after the birth — also revealed how the 32-year-old beauty was feeling upset that Hugh had left her.

“I think she will be quite sad at the moment,” he added. “She was looking for stability and children and in a way she’s got it. But it doesn’t look like she has someone standing by her.”

However, Tinglan plans to ask Hugh’s ex-girlfriend Elizabeth Hurley to be Bamboo’s godmother.
Tinglan and Hugh, 51, met in January and went on a string of dates but by April split and have only met on a few occasions since.

The Love Actually star did not attend the birth of his daughter — whose name is yet to be revealed — on September 26, as he was at a political conference in Liverpool.

Ray Stevenson Loves Life On Ibiza


Contact Music

The Three Musketeers star Ray Stevenson loves island life on Ibiza, insisting it conjures up romantic notions of life as a pirate.

The British actor, who plays Porthos in the new movie adaptation of the Alexandre Dumas novel, has been at home on the fabled Mediterranean party isle for years - and he wouldn't trade it for anything.

He tells Black Book magazine, "It's like a gypsy island. Ibiza is like a port where you sail in on your boat, scrape the barnacles off, and take off again."

And he insists the place isn't all parties and nightclubs: "Most people who share that view of the island have never been. It's got the biggest clubs in the world, sure, but you don't have to be part of that scene."

Kate Winslet and Ned Rocknroll

She's a big Rocknroll fan! Kate Winslet gazes into new boyfriend Ned's eyes in public display of affection at airport

Just two months ago she was seen lovingly holding hands with her model boyfriend as they left for Richard Branson's private island.

But fast forward to yesterday and Kate Winslet was striking a similar pose with the tycoon's nephew, her new boyfriend Ned Rocknroll.

The 35-year-old was yesterday spotted gazing into her lover's eyes during a sickeningly sweet display of affection as they arrived at Heathrow airport.

And she couldn't tear herself away from him for just a minute as they precariously tried to push their luggage trolley while clinging to one another.

 The couple had been in Las Cruces, New Mexico, for the unveiling of a runway at Virgin Galactic's Spaceport America.

Kate looked casual chic in a blazer and jeans while Ned braved the cool London weather in a white T-shirt and scarf.

The loved-up couple raised eyebrows at the launch when they jokingly swapped ID tags during their date in the desert.

They couldn't keep their hands off each other as they supped champagne at the starry event.

Ned, who works for the commercial space travel company, already changed his surname from Abel Smith by Deed Poll some years ago.

The couple met during a stay on Richard's private Caribbean island Necker in August.

The Titanic actress, who is a mother of two, is thought to have been still seeing on-off model boyfriend Louis Dowler.

But she ended up hitting it off with Ned, 33, who was also holidaying there.

He then accompanied her back home to New York, where she now lives.

During the holiday, A-lister Kate famously carried his mother down a flight of stairs as the holiday home they were staying in burned to the ground.

She split with film director husband Sam Mendes in March last year, and was previously married to director Jim Threapleton.



Meanwhile, Ned will soon be divorced from his estranged wife Eliza Pearson, daughter of Viscount Cowdray.

Spaceport America is a luxury terminal where wealthy tourists will blast into orbit for $200,000 per return trip.

The building will house Virgin Galactic's spacecraft, mission control and a preparation area for travellers when flights begin sometime after the end of 2012.
