Ethan Hawke & his nanny-wife welcome daughter Indiana

wenn2455044

Ethan Hawke and his nanny-wife Ryan announced her second pregnancy back in April, and now it’s looking like she gave birth… two weeks ago. Some may claim that this isn’t newsworthy or that no one cares about Ethan Hawke. I CARE. Ethan Hawke is, like, white trash beautiful to me. He’s so rodent-like and so hot (to me). And I don’t know how to feel about this nanny-wife, or the fact that they had another baby. Would I still get with Ethan knowing that he was the father of FOUR kids? That’s two with Ryan, two with Uma Thurman. Eh. Yeah, probably.

Ethan Hawke, who has called fatherhood “the greatest pleasure in my life,” and his wife, Ryan Hawke, welcomed their second child together two weeks ago, a girl named Indiana, PEOPLE has confirmed.

She’s the fourth child for Hawke, who also has two kids with ex-wife Uma Thurman. News of this pregnancy was first reported in April.

On Friday, the family had lunch at La Bottega in the Maritime Hotel, in Manhattan. “He was very happy,” an onlooker tells PEOPLE. “Seemed like a proud daddy.”

Ethan, 40, and Ryan married in June 2008. Their daughter, Clementine Jane, is now 3.

Hawke’s children with Thurman are Maya, 13, and Levon, 9.

In 2006, Ethan Hawke said parenting has brought him the greatest joy and was “the only role that, if I fail, I will consider my life a failure.”

[From People]

Thoughts on “Indiana” for a baby name? I don’t really hate it. It reminded me for some reason of the Phoenix clan. Isn’t one of them named Indiana? YES! I just found it – Casey Affleck and his wife Summer Phoenix named their daughter Indiana too. Incidentally, Ethan and the late River Phoenix were really, really close. If you ever saw Ethan’s Inside the Actor’s Studio, he spoke quite honestly about his overwhelming jealousy of River, and later Jude Law. I wonder if Ethan is still tight with the Phoenix siblings?

Here are some recent photos of Ethan looking delectable. Don’t hate on me, y’all. I love him and his dirt lip so much.

    Does that woman ever smile? You’d think that a nanny who landed a celebrity would look happier…

  2. hatekyle says:

    after gattaca and uma, he just looked so fug as ever.

  3. Pyewacket says:

    I think he is one of the ugliest actors around, and he sucks at it too.

  4. deva says:

    there’s something oh so…kev bacon to him.

  5. Sam says:

    who is that man in drag, with the bad wig, standing beside him in these pictures?

  6. Angelina says:

    Cant believe he left Uma for her and i really cant stand women that go off with other womens husbands seriously what happened to sisterhood

  7. itstrue says:

    In person he looks homeless, just FYI. Disgusting.

  8. mln76 says:

    Any mention of River Phoenix breaks my heart still 🙁 .

    As for Indiana I don’t mind it as a first name but Indianna Hawke is a weird combo. Indiana Phoenix is even worse though.

  9. Mitch Buchanan Rocks says:

    Ethan looks very in love with Ryan.

  10. Ima says:

    @mln76 Indiana is actually Indiana Affleck–Casey Affleck and Summer Phoenix’s son. I don’t know how/why I remember this…

  11. Truthful says:

    After Uma, I lost interest and his wife is ugly and hardfaced.

    I’m totally disappointed in him and his work..I’m a fan of his old work.

    I forgot he even existed.

  12. Str8Shooter says:

    Fug, pretentious bore he is. And WTF kind of name is Indiana Hawke? Sounds like a character from Dances with Wolves!

  13. mln76 says:

    @Ima thanks thats much better. Indiana Phoenix sounds like a town.

  14. Meanchick says:

    Indiana Phoenix? What? Are we giving babies stripper names now?

  15. Violet says:

    Ethan is not aging well.

    His current wife is so ugly — she has such a masculine face that I keep looking for an adam’s apple — that I still can’t believe he cheated on Uma with her. Ugh, talk about a major downgrade.

    Incidentally, Indiana Jones hated being called Junior so he took his dog’s name instead. Those poor kids have been saddled with really unfortunate names.

  16. coucou says:

    Ha, ha Meanchick, i know what you mean, and yet, my great great grandmother was named Kansas (as in Kansas Dilley Skimmerhorn) and she was married to a preacher, soooo, i guess it’s just a sign of the times.

  17. Cheyenne says:

    He looks like a mole.

  18. serena says:

    I care too, he’s just so hot. and with the glasses..oh god, that look is perfect. Hope he does more movies and all.

  19. Blue says:

    I find him hot as well. I don’t know why but he does it for me.

  20. Turtle Dove says:

    mln76 – I get sad too. He was so beautiful. I always wonder what he’d be like… well… to best to not think about it.

    I can’t stay mad at Ethan; I still like him… but he got his just desserts being with the garden gnome he married.

    Thanks for posting on the weekend, Kaiser. 🙂

  21. John Wayne Lives says:

    @min76…”Any mention of River Phoenix breaks my heart still”
    Me too 🙁 My older sis and I were watching tv and folding laundry on the living room floor when it was announced, and we held hands and cried. It seems so teenagerish, but we were, and it was a tragic milesone in our young girl hearts.

    And I care too!! I really love him, always have 🙂 I think he’s one of those men that has a Poet’s Soul as they say.

  22. Lady La La says:

    Indiana, Montana, Dakota…. What next, Ohio and New Hampshire?

  23. Madison says:

    He didn’t leave Uma for this manny, he cheated on Uma with some waitress/actress then Uma dumped him. A lof of actors are really insecure, narcissistic, yes ethan hawke I’m looking at you. Unlike Uma this woman is perfect for him, she’s no competition in the looks or career department. He’s admitted he’s the jealous type, he was jealous of Uma in so many ways, he has nothing to be jealous of with Ryan.

  24. lucy2 says:

    Ethan used to be hot and in demand. Let him be a lesson – hang onto your pennies, current “it” crowd!

    Don’t care for the name. We’re about out of states that can be used for names, right? Please?

  25. ZenB!tch says:

    I always thought Uma had weird taste in men. I could never relate to her when we were in our 20s because of it. I mean she married Gary Oldman and if the name fits. I love him as an actor but uh even as a grown woman… no. Ethan Hawke was worse. He wanted to be all cool and alt and he never pulled it off. He’s not news worthy now at all. What’s he done lately?

  26. Heaven bound says:

    What a down grade from Uma Thurman! The tattoos
    on his wife are trashy. Yep, he used to be hot once upon a time…. He should be like the “cautionary tale” for all cheaters!

  27. Chris says:

    The Indiana Hawks are a basketball team.

  28. Festus says:

    Indiana August Affleck is a boy; he is the sun of Casey Affleck and Summer Phoenix Affleck.

  29. Carena says:

    What a crappy state to name a kid after. I speak from experience. I wonder if they visited before they decided on that name.

  30. Laura says:

    That glasses pic is so hot.

  31. Bia says:

    Poor Ethan. He had such a promising career and then he cheated on Uma sad. Him and Ryan Philipe should be regarded as cautionary tales. Never cheat on your more successful, prettier wife with the staff.

  32. NYC_girl says:

    My mother was on a flight with him a few years back and he gallantly helped load and unload her luggage from the overhead bin – without being asked. I gladly admit that I loved him in “Before Sunset.”

  33. Claire78 says:

    Correct me if I am wrong, but didn’t Uma have an affair with Quentin Tarantino – she definately did get it on with him – but was she still married? God I loved him in ‘Reality Bites’.

  34. Ulysses says:

    Back in the days of Reality Bites I had totally planned on growing up to be Winona Ryder and finding my very own Troy, (not exactly a mature selection). Well I did find my Troy and funnily enough I’m still paying for it, should’ve picked the Ben Stiller character I tells ya.

    If celebrity and nanny shenanigans have taught me anything it’s that you always pick the matronly old lady, not the young blonde – even if she’s remotely fuckable.

  35. Claire78 says:

    Totally agree with above – from what I have seen in life be cautious of the nanny and the secretary

  36. mln76 says:

    @Turtle Dove & John Wayne Lives 🙁
    Glad I am not the only one who remembers him. It was a big loss. It makes me sad to think what he could have done with all that talent.

    Oh and I just realized that Indiana Affleck maybe a tribute to River playing the young Indiana Jones in the Last Crusade. sigh.

  37. Hibiscus says:

    “from what I have seen in life be cautious of the nanny and the secretary ”

    … and the housekeeper! 😀

    The wife with the trash-tattoos does look a bit like Uma pre-plastic-surgeries.
    Ethan Hawke seems to have a type.

  38. Chris says:

    “Correct me if I am wrong, but didn’t Uma have an affair with Quentin Tarantino”

    Okay.

    Quentin denied that and said he doesn’t sleep with his actresses.

  39. Ann says:

    Why worry about the nanny or the secretary? Better not marry a dumbass who’ll cheat on you with either?

  40. WOM says:

    And I thought Jennifer Aniston’s boyfriend had ugly tattoos! Those are horrible.

    I hate the name Indiana on anything other than a state. Firstly, as a homage to River Phoenix, it sucks. He played Indy in one movie, for fifteen minutes! Harrison Ford IS Indiana, not that kid. Secondly, Indiana Jones’ real name was Henry and (as so delightfully noted by Sean Connery) “We named the dog Indiana.” Which is true, because the character was named after George Lucas’ dog. Thirdly, is a drug user who overdosed REALLY the role model you want to assign to your young daughter? NO!

  41. LBeees says:

    I loved loved LOVED him in Before Sunset, and Gattaca, and I CANNOT believe he downgraded from Uma!

    In the words of Michael Bluth… Her?

  42. Callumna says:

    This is inexplicable. He’s gotta have some money and he’s really famous.

    He cheated on Uma and once the marriage broke up THIS is what he landed on?

    Is he one of those dumb actors who is just unable to think? That nanny’s not got a good job, not got money, class– absent, tats — present. Eyes look nuts, just not cute even if you squint.

    No, don’t get it. He was once with Uma! Didn’t someone tell him?

  43. Vesper says:

    OMG, just thinking of Ethan in Reality Bites gives me butterflies.

    I agree Ethan is not aging well and he is only 41. When I look back at his pics before his marriage with Uma he looks so much more healthy. His face is more filled out, as is his body. He was actually built at one point instead of having the scranny body we see today.

    Looking at the physical changes over the last 10+ years – the thin face with hallowed out cheeks (giving him that rodent look), the general weight loss, the unhealthy palour to his skin, even his yellowed teeth, I always got the impression that he had a bad problem with drugs, in particular crack or meth. There are some pics taken by the paps of him walking around town, and his personal hygene is so bad he could be mistaken for a homeless person. He has admitted in at least one interview that he once had a problem with drugs. It might explain how he want from someone like Uma to that fulgy trashy woman he is now married to.

    Despite all that I still like him as an actor. I just think he’s a perfect example of someone who doesn’t live a healthy lifestyle.

  44. Venefica Delirium says:

    Congratulations, I guess.

    So that’s the “other woman”?

  45. Eve says:

    I recently watched a horrible, horrible movie with him (and Willem Dafoe) called Daybreakers. The movie is about earth being rulled by vampires and humans are hunted for their blood…

    However, I must admit (though I have never thought about him as attractive) that he looked fine in it — especially near the end when he *SPOILERS* becomes human again.

  46. CJ says:

    Quentin must be lying or forgetful maybe – he definately did have something with Uma.
