Mel Gibson is an "incredible" and "hands-on" father to his new baby daughter.

The actor - whose girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva gave birth to Lucia Anne on October 30 - has been praised for his excellent parenting skills despite only spending three days with his newborn because of work commitments.

Mel Gibson has named his new child.

The 'What Women Want' star - whose girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva gave birth on Friday (30.10.09) - has announced the couple plan to call the infant Lucia.

Mel Gibson has become a father for the eighth time.

The 'Lethal Weapon' actor's girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva gave birth to a baby girl on Friday (30.10.09) and both mother and daughter are said to be doing well.

Mel Gibson and his pregnant girlfriend are still living apart. The "Lethal Weapon" star - who confirmed he and Oksana Grigorieva are expecting their first child together earlier this week - and the Russian pop star do not share a home as Oksana doesn't want to disturb the life of her 11-year-old son, whose father is actor Timothy Dalton.

Mel Gibson's new girlfriend is reportedly pregnant. The "Lethal Weapon" star - who already has seven children with estranged wife Robyn - and Russian singer Oksana Grigorieva are said to be expecting their first child together in the autumn.

It has been claimed Mel, 53, has already told Robyn and their children the news, although it wasn't well received.

Mel Gibson's children are refusing to talk to him. The 'Braveheart' actor's seven kids are said to be furious at their father's separation from their mother Robyn Moore Gibson - who he wed 28 years ago - and do not want to have any contact with him.

Mel's Malibu neighbour said: "The children are totally furious about the collapse of their parents' marriage. None of them are talking to their dad right now. They are very upset.
