LOS ANGELES (AP) — Mel Gibson and his girlfriend are welcoming the birth of the couple's first child — making the Oscar-winner a father for the eighth time.
Gibson's publicist Alan Nierob said Monday that Oksana (ok-SAH'-nah) Grigorieva (gree-gor-EE'-vah) gave birth to a baby girl named Lucia on Friday at a hospital in Los Angeles.
No further details were available.
The 53-year-old "Braveheart" star has seven children with his ex-wife, Robyn. She cited irreconcilable differences in her April divorce petition to end their marriage of 28 years.
Grigorieva is a 39-year-old Russian musician.
