Why is Hugh Grant so hacked off with the tabloids? Oh…

By Axegrinder

So why is Hollywood star and Hacked Off backer Hugh Grant so preoccupied with the issue of press regulation?

Oh…

The Sun reveals today for the first time that Grant has sired another child out of wedlock following an affair with a Swedish TV producer.

The child was born 16 months ago but Grant’s name has only recently appeared on the boy’s birth certificate – which is a public document.

Grant's second child was born in between the first "fleeting affair" with Tinglan Hong which resulted in the birth of their first child, and the birth of his third child with Hong.

The Sun today published an apparently 'papped' photo of Grant's 16-month-old son with his face heavily pixelated.
