Samantha and Jude dated briefly while he was filming ‘Sherlock Holmes,’ and they had already gone their separate ways when she discovered she was pregnant. She gave birth to Jude’s fourth Burke, 24, and Law, 36, met outside of the Meatpacking District club 1OAK in January, while the actor was in town filming "Sherlock Holmes." Says the insider, "They actually met after the club had closed, on the street. He took her to a diner around the corner and then to the Greenwich Hotel, where he was staying. She stayed over that night.
"In the morning, Jude had to make his call time so he left her in his hotel room. When she took off, she left him her phone number, and after a few days, he called back and said he'd like to take her out to dinner. They never did make that dinner - they just stayed in his hotel room."
When the fling was over within the week, Law stopped responding to Burke's phone calls. At the time, Burke, who also worked as a hostess at the East Village sports bar Bounce, did not think of contacting the actor again until she realized she was pregnant. By then, Law's cell number had been disconnected and he had checked out of his hotel, so she decided the best route was to hire a lawyer and contact the star's managers.
"When Samantha found out she was pregnant, she left Jersey City
and moved back home to Pensacola, Florida. She decided to keep the baby, but never expected Jude to have any part in the child's life. So she had her lawyer contact him in April, where they negotiated a settlement that should keep her pretty comfortable," says the pal.
