Looks as if Jude Law's going to be in the market for another nanny.

No, not because he's lonely.

The divorced father of three is expecting his fourth child with an ex-girlfriend, who shall remain nameless for now.

"Jude Law can confirm that, following a relationship last year, he has been advised that he is to be the father of a child due in the fall of this year," the actor's rep said in a statement. "Mr. Law is no longer in a relationship with the individual concerned but he intends to be a fully supportive part of the child's life. This is an entirely private matter and no other statements will be made."

The erstwhile Oscar nominee has three kids with ex-wife Sadie Frost. He was engaged to perennial It girl Sienna Miller, but a dalliance with one of his children's nannies ultimately put an end to that in 2005.

In the meantime, Law's been pulling Hamlet duty in London's West End, and the acclaimed production moves to Broadway in September. The Brit also plays Dr. Watson alongside Robert Downey Jr.'s titular sleuth in Sherlock Holmes, due in theaters Christmas Day.

Love him or hate him, Jude Law probably belongs in our Hollywood's Hottest Dads gallery.
