Hugh Grant's journey from playboy to family man revealed
For many years, British actor Hugh Grant had a reputation as a ladies' man and playboy. His popularity in romantic comedies drove women wild, especially since he often portrayed clumsy and sensitive characters on screen. Meanwhile, in real life, two women were simultaneously pregnant by him. One of them is his wife today.

In the '90s, Grant dated several beautiful actresses. Among them was Elizabeth Hurley, whom he publicly embarrassed in 1995 when he was arrested for having sex with a prostitute in a car in Hollywood. The actor later admitted that he had been very disappointed after watching his Hollywood debut in "Nine Months," so he felt the need to blow off steam in such a way. Hurley forgave him, but they ultimately broke up five years later, ending a 13-year relationship.
Hugh Grant: His children and partners
In 2011, Grant became infatuated with Tinglan Hong, a Chinese restaurant worker 19 years his junior. The infatuation was so strong that she gave birth to his first child. A year later, the actor became a father for the second time, but this time with another woman: Swedish television producer Anna Eberstein, who was 19 years younger.
Just three months later, Tinglan Hong gave birth to his third child. This means that both of Grant's partners were pregnant by him simultaneously. Ultimately, the British movie star left Hong and chose the Swede, who forgave him for his infidelities. Furthermore, she gave birth to two more children for him. Today, Hugh Grant has five children, whom he raised with two women. In interviews, he jokes that he is "too old for his children" (he became a father for the first time at 51) and works only to support them.
Hugh Grant: marriage for a passport?
Eight years ago, Grant and Eberstein got married. A rumor online suggested that the actor decided to "tie the knot" to obtain a European passport through marriage to the Swede. The rumors reached Grant, who dismissed them on Twitter.
Today, Grant seems happy and settled, with a second family "on the side." He is currently promoting his new movie, the horror film Heretic, which is receiving great reviews.
Other well-known Grant films include, of course, the holiday classic "Love Actually" and romantic comedies such as "Two Weeks Notice," "Four Weddings and a Funeral," and the "Bridget Jones" series.
