"The Talented Mr. Ripley" Oscar nominee and "Artificial Intelligence: AI" star -- not to mention sex symbol -- Jude Law, 29, and his wife, Sadie Frost, 36, are expecting their third child, due in August, Law's spokeswoman told the Associated Press. The two, who have been married since 1997, already have a 5-year-old son, Rafferty, and a daughter, Iris, 18 months. In addition, Frost is the mother of 9-year-old Finlay, her son by singer Gary Kemp of the 1980s band Spandau Ballet. Law was in the pages of PEOPLE last May for having been named one of the 50 Most Beautiful People in the World 2001. According to a profile of the English actor in the magazine, he met Frost on the set of the film "Shopping" in 1993. They make their home in London's arty Primrose Hill neighborhood and on weekends sometimes stroll nearby Regents Park with Law's close friend, "Moulin Rouge" star Ewan McGregor (the pair met at an audition in 1990 when a director gave them $30 and ordered them to get drunk so he could see how they got along, the magazine reports), his wife, Eva Mavrakis, and their daughter. Playing daddy is Law's favorite role, says PEOPLE. His and Frost's film contracts include days off for their children's school events, and friends know not to telephone after 6:30 p.m. because that's dinnertime for the kids.
