Movie heart-throb Jude Law’s pals reveal their reaction when they found out the star’s REAL name

The heartbreaking film Jude Law was part of the hedonistic ‘Primrose Hill set’ in North London.

So imagine the shock among the group when they found out his real name is David Jude Heyworth Law.

“It just makes it so unsexy,” says former Hollyoaks star Davinia Taylor, 45, who was a socialite in similar circles.

She played Jude Cunningham in the Channel 4 soap and later named her son after her character.

Davinia adds, “People used to say to me, ‘Is he named Jude after Jude Law?’ and I said no, because Jude Law’s real name is Dave.”

She was recently speaking on the Blethered podcast with Sean McDonald when she made the comments.

It comes as Jude’s former partner Sienna Miller revealed she’s expecting her second child by showing off her tummy while on a beach in Ibiza this week.

The actress, 41, who is already mum to daughter Marlowe, ten, with her ex Tom Sturridge, confirmed she is expecting during the beach holiday: People reports.

The movie star is currently in a relationship with Oli Green, 26, who is 15 years her junior.

The news of Sienna’s pregnancy comes after she revealed she froze her eggs after she turned 40.

Speak against ElleSienna shared how she often wondered, “Should I have more (children), and why not, and all that, which is a very loud noise.”

She said, “Biology is incredibly cruel to women in that decade — that’s the headline, or at least it was for me.

“Then I got to 40 and froze some eggs. Because I’m really focused on the need to have another baby, I think if it happens, it happens. That kind of existential threat is gone.”

In 2019, Sienna told The Sunday Times Style Magazine how she hoped to grow her family in the future.

She said, “I would love to have more children. I would also love it for my daughter. I think I would be open to getting married.”

The star was dating Lucas Zwirner at the time, but they eventually broke up the following year.

Sienna previously shared how she felt “overwhelmed” and thought she had “failed” the early stages of parenthood after she had Marlowe in 2012.

Reflecting on the difficult time, the actress said she was “obsessed” with Marlowe, but at the same time was also in “absolute hell” because she “didn’t know what she was doing.”

Sienna revealed that she had a “traumatic delivery” with her daughter and felt she had “failed” at the time by not being in a “blissful little bubble.”

Speaking on This Morning, she said, “I remember when I had Marlowe, yes, people would call and say, ‘I’m sure you’re in your blissful little bubble’ and I was obsessed with my daughter, but I was also in absolute hell.

“Because you’re losing 24 hours of sleep a week at night, you spend so much time preparing for labor and then you have to take the baby home and I didn’t know what I was doing.

“It was intense, I had a traumatic birth, but I felt like I had failed at something by not being happy in the early stages of parenthood.”

The actress wanted a “natural water birth,” but instead endured a painful 27-hour labor that ended in an emergency caesarean section.

More recently, Sienna spoke about the regrets of her relationship, saying that she rather hoped to get married by the age of 30 and have three children.

The actress said she spent years investing in a relationship with someone who was “a bucket with a hole in it of a person.”

She said British VogueI had invested what felt like significant years into something that was no more than a person’s bucket with a hole in it. I wasted time. And I felt like time was really my currency.”

Sienna was quick to point out that she was not referring to daughter Marlowe’s father, Tom Sturridge, who she dated from 2011 to 2015.

Prior to her relationship with Tom, Sienna was engaged to fellow actor Jude Law in 2004 after he popped the question on Christmas Day.

He apologized to her in July of the following year for having an affair with his children’s nanny.

Looking back at 30, she added: “There was a lot of fear. The relationships hadn’t worked out – I imagined being married and having three kids, and being a great mother. I love being a mother. That’s what I’m best at.’

Discussing her relationship with Oli, who is 15 years her junior, Sienna added, “There’s a misogyny that’s deeply ingrained in men my age and older that I don’t see in (the) generation below.”

Sienna’s ex Tom is now in a relationship with presenter and fashion designer Alexa Chung, with the actress saying she is “very happy” for the couple.
