Actor Ethan Hawke and wife Ryan Shawhughes welcomed their
first child together, daughter Clementine Jane Hawke, Friday in New York City.
Clementine Jane Hawke, born on Friday, July 18, in New York City, is Ethan
Hawke’s first child with Ryan Shawhughes. He and Shawhughes, who was nanny
while he was married to Uma Thurman, married in June.
Ethan Hawke is father already to daughter Maya, 10, and son
Levon, 6, with actress Uma Thurman.
Upon news of the pregnancy, Hawke’s rep Mara Buxbaum said,
“I can confirm and they are thrilled. No further details will be made
available.”
Details were indeed not provided, as the couple has been
very discreet about their relationship. People magazine only confirmed their
wedding three weeks after the happy event had occurred.
Eh and Thurman divorced in 2004, after seven years of
marriage, but have maintained a close relationship according to their accounts.
In December 2006, the actor told Parade magazine that he and his former wife
live down the street from each other and that they have “each other’s back”
when it comes to raising their children.
He also called Maya and Levon “the greatest pleasure in my
life” and said fatherhood is “the only role that, if I fail, I will consider my
life a failure.”
People magazine quotes “a close family member” saying about
Ethan Hawke and Ryan Shawhughes: “I expect that they should be very good
parents. They both love children, and they love each other ... I know they are
thrilled.”
Uma Thurman recently announced she was engaged to Swiss
multimillionaire Arpad “Arki” Busson.
