In the 2006 Christmas classic The Holiday, Jude Law played a widower to two young daughters. In real life, he’s the father of seven children as of 2024, and fans want to know more about his large brood.
Jude Law Shares 3 Children With Ex-Wife Sadie Frost
Jude and Sadie, who is seven years the actor’s senior, met and fell in love while shooting the 1994 film Shopping. They married in 1997 and divorced in 2003, having three children during the course of their relationship.
The former couple welcomed son Rafferty, known as “Raff” on October 6, 1996, when Jude was 23 years old. Daughter Iris was born on October 25, 2000, and son Rudy came along on September 10, 2002.
Who Is Jude Law’s Son Rafferty Law?
Raff began working as a model in his teens, starring in campaigns for such luxury brands as Valentino and Dolce & Gabbana.
Jude’s oldest child followed in his dad’s acting footsteps, landing his first major role in the 2024 Apple TV+ miniseries Masters of the Air, playing Sgt. Ken Lemmons.
Raff discussed the comparisons with his famous father in a 2021 interview.
“There’s that comparison all the time and I find it quite funny, because obviously we’re going to look quite similar — he’s my dad,” he told GQ Hype. “It’s nice because we do have similarities and we are so close, so now that I’m older he can help me work on scripts and I can send him my music and he can say, ‘Yeah, that’s great.’”
Raff added of his dad, “He’s just happy to see me becoming a young man that he’s proud to call his son.”
Who Is Jude Law’s Daughter Iris Law?
Iris’ godmother is supermodel Kate Moss, so it’s only fitting that she grew up to become a model.
“Fashion is something that I’ve always been hugely interested in since I was younger and it’s an important part of my family,” she told British Vogue in 2020. “My dad always encouraged me and my siblings to express ourselves through our clothes and choose what we liked.”
Iris has appeared in advertisements for Versace, Marc Jacobs and Stella McCartney, in addition to becoming a brand ambassador for Dior beauty in 2021.
Like Raff, Iris has tried her hand at acting, starring as Soo Catwoman in the 2022 miniseries Pistol.
Who Is Jude Law’s Son Rudy Law?
Rudy was only 3 years old when his parents split up but remains close to both of them.

Rudy maintains a more private life than his siblings, keeping his Instagram set to private.
Rudy was photographed having a father-son outing at the Brisbane International tennis tournament in 2024, while he was in Australia visiting Jude while he filmed the survival thriller Eden.
Who Is Jude Law’s Daughter Sophia Law?
Jude welcomed his fourth child, daughter Sophia, on September 22, 2009. Her mother is The Talented Mr. Ripley star’s ex-girlfriend, model Samantha Burke.
Sophia’s parents met in 2008 while Jude filmed Sherlock Holmes in New York City. The actor’s rep acknowledged that he was going to be a father again after reports surfaced about Samantha’s pregnancy.
“Jude Law can confirm that, following a relationship last year, he has been advised that he is to be the father of a child due in the fall of this year,” his rep said at the time. “Mr. Law is no longer in a relationship with the individual concerned but he intends to be a fully supportive part of the child’s life.”
Sophia was born in Florida, and the teenager leads a private life.

Catherine is engaged to Brazilian English premier league footballer Jorginho Frello, with whom she welcomed son Jax in 2020.

The New Pope star confirmed the birth of his sixth child during a September 2020 Tonight Show appearance, saying how special it was to have family time during the COVID-19 lockdowns.

The couple added a second child to their family in 2023.
