Mel Gibson welcomed his eighth child late last week. We have learned that his girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva gave birth to a baby girl, according to RadarOnline.

The baby, born a few weeks earlier than expected, arrived on Friday and is said to be healthy. In fact, the news source reports that the newborn is already at home with her parents.

Robyn Gibson filed for divorce in April 2009 upon learning of the extra-marital romance and pregnancy of Mel’s girlfriend. The couple were married 29 years and their marital assets are estimated to be $900 million. They have six sons and one daughter together.

Grigorieva, an accomplished musician, has a 12-year-old son Alexander with actor Timothy Dalton.

Mel Gibson Divorce Settlement: Who Gets What

Missy — Thu, 04 Jun 2009 12:07:21 +0000

Actor Mel Gibson and his wife of 28 years, Robyn Moore, filed for divorce back in April and now their financial situation is being revealed. Who will get what, when the divorce is final?

Gibson is said to be worth a whopping $900 million dollars on paper, however, most of his net-worth is tied-up in real estate. A source close to the case said that “relative to his wealth, there is not a lot of cash involved.”

By no means are they living on a budget. His latest project, set to be filmed for Paramount in the fall 2009, is expected to earn him a cool $17 million.

Some of Gibson’s properties are in trusts for his children and the rest will have to be liquidated in order to reach a final property settlement. The process is likely to be tied up for years, in light of the stagnant real estate market.

In other Gibson news, he is going to be a daddy again with new girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva. This will be his eighth child.

Mel Gibson aka ‘Octo-Mel’ Spills Baby News on Leno (VIDEO)

Meg — Tue, 26 May 2009 10:40:25 +0000

Mel Gibson confirmed last night on the Tonight Show that his new girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva is pregnant. Rumors have been swirling since the actor announced, through his rep, that he and his wife of 28 years were getting a divorce.

The actor, 53, took some good-natured ribbing from comedic host Jay Leno, who pressed for ‘dirt’ details on his break-up with Robyn Gibson, as well as the age of his new girlfriend.

Gibson took all of the credit for the split, saying “I did a pretty good hatchet job on my marriage myself. I’m to blame. If you’re inclined to judge, put it here.” Then Leno delved for details on the baby mama, “What, is she 17, 18?” Gibson shared that his new love interest is nearly 40 and followed that up by saying “Now I am going to have two women mad at me.”

Asked if they were expecting a child, Mel responded, “This is true. We’re gonna have a child.” Leno quipped, “So that will make 29?” Gilson said, “Well, actually eight. I guess I’m Octo-Mel.”

Gibson’s rep has also confirmed the baby news. The actor has a fortune estimated at $1 billion. The divorce settlement could award one-half of that sum to Mel’s soon-to-be ex-wife.

Things appear to be moving right along for Mel Gibson and his girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva. We’ve only just come to know about the new woman in Gibson’s life and have discovered that the couple are expecting a child together. According to TMZ, the mother-to-be is already in her second trimester.

We must say that judging from the above photo, this woman either has fantastic stomach muscles or is wearing her heavy duty Spanx under that little black dress.

Robyn Gibson apparently came to know about her in mid April, when she opted to end her 28 year marriage with the father of their daughter and six sons. The couple also have two grandchildren, and had been separated for the last three years.

Two weeks after Robyn filed for divorce, Mel paraded his new love for all the world to see at a Hollywood movie premiere.

A few weeks ago actor Mel Gibson made headlines after his wife of 28 years filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences. Last night Mel hit the red carpet at the screening of X-Men Origins: Wolverine with his girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva.

Witnesses at the event said that the pair came in quietly and tried the keep under the radar, adding that Mel looked very comfortable holding hands with Russian singer Oksana.

Mel’s rep told People magazine, “Mel has been single for almost three years and it’s nice to see him getting out and enjoying himself.” We’ll interject that in the eyes of the law, not quite single, but separated.

Gibson received a special invitation to the screening from Hugh Jackman, who says that Mel has been his inspiration for the role because of his character in the Mad Max series.

Oksana Pochepa, a 24-year-old Russian pop singer, claims that she and Mel Gibson are in love. Her revelation comes on the heels of Gibson’s wife of 28 years filing for divorce last week.

In an interview with The Sun, Oksana says “This is serious and I hope that our union will be real and strong and long-lasting.”

The singer, who is also a model, met the 53-year-old actor last August when she was hired to compose a song for his upcoming film Edge of Darkness.

According to a source, the couple would spend entire days alone together in Gibson’s trailer and returned to the same hotel at the end of the day.

They then met up again in Mexico City in January, where Gibson directed a music video for Oksana.

Pochepa also revealed that she is the mystery woman seen kissing Gibson in pictures snapped on a Costa Rican beach in March.

Robyn Gibson, 52, filed for divorce just weeks after the photos were published.

Mel Gibson and Britney Spears Do Mentoring at Havana Club

Meg — Wed, 11 Jun 2008 18:19:46 +0000

Mel Gibson and Britney Spears met last night at the Beverly Hills Havana Club. The two have been fast friends since the pop star was released from her second hospitalization early this year. They were previously neighbors in Malibu before Brit moved to her current gated community in Studio City.

Spears arrived at the cigar club at 7:00 p.m. in a Jeep Commander driven by one of her bodyguards and accompanied by her assistant Brett. The group was driven into the underground parking garage. Gibson wasn’t far behind her, turning his silver Lexus over to a valet before entering the club.

Britney was wearing some new Capri jeans that were purchased earlier in the day at Lisa Kline boutique in Beverly Hills. Photog’s outside described her mood as ‘very quiet and serious’ as she entered the club. She and Gibson reportedly meet often so that Gibson can provide guidance to the recovering celebrity.

Jamie Spears, Britney’s father, wholeheartedly approves of the mentoring that Gibson provides. He and Britney accompanied Gibson and his family to their Costa Rican vacation home last month for a week of relaxing on the beach.

Britney stayed at the cigar club until 9:30 p.m. Gibson remained for 90 additional minutes, perhaps to catch the end of one of the NBA finals being broadcast last night. He departed at 11:00 p.m.

Check out photos of Britney’s shopping excursion at Lisa Kline in Beverly Hills.
