Mel Gibson & Oksana Grigorieva Expecting

Mel Gibson is expecting a baby with girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva.

Mel, 53, confirmed the news to Jay Leno on Monday’s “Tonight Show.”

“The rumor I have heard,” Jay began, “is that you guys are going to have a child?”

“This is true. We’re gonna have a child,” Gibson replied.

Though Mel did not specify when Oksana, 39, is due, he revealed the child will make him the father of eight.

“I guess I’m Octo-Mel,” the actor joked.

Mel has seven children with Robyn Gibson. Mel and Robyn both filed for divorce last month after being separated for over three years. And on Monday, Mel talked about the split with Jay.

“Look, when it’s all said and done I did a pretty good hatchet job on my marriage myself,” Mel said. “I’m to blame. If you’re inclined to judge, put it here.”

Mel said he is still friends with Robyn.

“My wife and I… our marriage ended three years ago and we’ve been separated ever since then,” Mel told Jay. “These things happen. It’s unfortunate, it’s sad, but you know she is an admirable woman – we still got kids together, we’re friends.”

As for Mel’s relationship with Oksana, the two made their first public outing last month at the Los Angeles “X-Men Origins: Wolverine” premiere.

A source close to the actor previously told Access Hollywood that Mel and Oksana have been together less than one year.

Oksana has a son, Alexander, with her ex, former Bond star Timothy Dalton.
