Ewan McGregor just announced in an interview that he and his wife Eve Mavrakis have adopted a daughter, a four-month old whose name has not yet been made public. Ewan is now the father of FOUR girls! His oldest, at 15, is Clara Mathilde, then Esther Rose is 9, and then he and Eve adopted Jamiyan, who is also 9, from Mongolia in 2006. Apparently, Ewan confirmed the adoption weeks ago, but I guess no one bothered to read the interview…? He told the NY Post, “My wife and four girls – 15, two nine year olds and a baby of four months – often come with me if it’s a holiday or my locations and their schedules allow. Sometimes we uproot them and put them in another school.” Wow.

Ewan McGregor has let slip that he and wife Eve Mavrakis have adopted a baby girl. The 40-year-old actor revealed the news while promoting his movie Beginners in Los Angeles earlier this month. The little girl, who will be the fourth child for Ewan and Eve, was born in March and is just four months old.

However, Ewan has not revealed any other details about the baby, such as her name and nationality. The baby is the second adopted child for Ewan and his wife, who adopted daughter Jamiyan from Mongolia five years ago. The couple are also parents to daughters Clara, 15, and nine-year-old Esther.

Ewan made the revelation when he spoke to the New York Post about his new movie. Discussing how his family always comes first, Ewan said: ‘My wife and four girls – 15, two nine-year-olds and a baby of four months – often come with me if it’s a holiday or my locations and their schedules allow. Sometimes we uproot them and put them in another school.’

Ewan is notoriously private about his family life, but said in a recent interview that he will always try and spend as much time as possible with his children.

He said: ‘I recognize it can be boring to play with young children – to tell a story over and over again, let’s say – but the secret is being there. If you’ve made a decision to play with your children, then play with them. Don’t be looking through papers on your desk or sneaking off to the computer. Turn off your BlackBerry. Lose yourself in their world. Even if you do it for a short time, it will mean a lot to you and to them.’

People say that Ewan and Eve have an “open marriage” whenever there’s a rumor about Ewan with one of his leading ladies – we had photo evidence of Ewan and Melanie Laurent, and I remember rumors about Ewan and Michelle Williams back before Heath Ledger died too. But… I’ve never heard anything about Eve enjoying her side of an “open marriage” and they keep adopting those girls. I mean, I think Ewan and Eve are probably great parents, but I do wonder about the state of their marriage and their family. Still, congratulations to Eve and Ewan and their FOUR daughters. It’s a wonder Ewan doesn’t wander around, covered in glitter and nail polish.
