His relationship with his ex, Elizabeth Hurley, has always been positive.
It appears that Hugh Grant is eager to maintain a favorable standing with her family as well.
At the premiere of Pirates! In an Adventure with Scientists at the May Fair Hotel, the 51-year-old brought his ex’s son, Damian, as his companion for the evening.
Damian, who is nine years old, appeared dapper in a black blazer, a white shirt, and a blue silk tie.
Hugh seemed at ease and cheerful as he playfully posed with a parrot prior to the screening.
In Pirates!, which marks his first animated feature, the star of Four Weddings and a Funeral joins co-stars David Tennant and Brian Blessed.
The film, a latest creation from Aardman Animations, directed by Peter Lord and Jeff Newitt, features Grant as the voice of Pirate Captain and chronicles his journey to earn the Pirate of the Year award.
His crew consists of voices from Martin Freeman, Brendan Gleeson, Russell Tovey, and Ashley Jensen.
On his expedition from Blood Island to London, Pirate Captain collaborates with a scientist, portrayed by David Tennant.
Recently, Hugh shared his thoughts on adapting to fatherhood, expressing fondness for his baby daughter, whom he had with ex-girlfriend Tinglan Hong, stating that he likes her ‘very much.’
He mentioned the decision he and Chinese actress Tinglan made to name their daughter Tabitha.
The 51-year-old actor commented to The Guardian newspaper: ‘Many people cautioned me that the baby phase isn’t particularly exciting.
‘But I’m actually thrilled. I assumed I would just pretend to enjoy it – but I’ve hardly needed to pretend at all.’
Grant also expressed that he has no regrets about becoming a father for the first time.
He remarked: ‘I like my daughter very much. It’s fantastic. Has she transformed my life? I’m not entirely sure.
‘Not yet. Not significantly, no. However, I am truly delighted to have her in my life, and I feel like a better person because of it.’
