Thandie Newton has given birth to a baby boy.
The 41-year-old actress and husband Ol Parker welcomed little Booker Jombe - a sibling for their daughters Ripley, 13, and Nico, nine - into the world on Monday, she has announced on Twitter. "Our baby boy is finally here! Booker Jombe Parker. Born joyously at home yesterday," she wrote yesterday.
The Crash actress announced her pregnancy in September and later admitted she was finding it tough working on action-packed police drama Rogue, in which she plays undercover cop Grace Travis. "Basically, I had two options; to withdraw from the show which would have meant the show collapsing, or to commit regardless. I'd seem actresses takes on meaty un-pregnant roles while carrying babies - Jodie Foster in Panic Room. My agent also reassured me that both Claire Danes and Anna Paquin worked well into their first pregnancies. So - it was all going to work out just fine wasn't it? We're on episode nine, and are near enough to finishing for me to be able to chuckle at my naivety in thinking this was going to be anything other than mayhem, with a waddling lead actress at the center," she said.

Thandie Newton is pregnant.
The Half of a Yellow Sun actress, who already has two daughters, Ripley, 12, and Nico, eight, is expecting her third child with her husband Oliver Parker. The 40-year-old British star's manager confirmed the happy news to UsMagazine.com.
"She couldn't be more happy. You can barely tell she has a bump and she's been dressing different because of it," another source close to the actress said.
The actress attended the premiere of her new movie at the Toronto International Film Festival on Sunday. Thandie previously revealed that motherhood has thought her a lot about what is really important in life. "It's amazing how you start again and you re-live your childhood. The universe has given me girls because I needed to live that girlhood again in a fresh way. Motherhood has taught me how exquisite human beings are and how tender, fragile and powerful we are.''

At last night’s Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute Gala, female celebrities of every caliber had the chance to put on their finest. (Their escorts did their best to look acceptable in their suits.)
Unfortunately, most of the dresses I saw this year were either outright boring or simply ugly. You can view more of the lowlights - and some of the highlights - after the jump.
