Meanwhile the aspiring actress and former Hooters waitress Burke is in talks about selling her story about her brief fling with the star and the first pictures of the baby.
The 24-year-old is expected to return to her family’s home in Pensacola, Florida, after giving birth to Sophia.
She had started a baby-blog after becoming pregnant by the British star but since her daughter was born she has not up-dated the site.
It’s understood that she has been offered $200,000 for her story about her fling with Law which occurred in New York while he was filming Sherlock Holmes and only lasted for a week.
Law – who already has three kids Rafferty, 12, Rudy, 6, and Iris, 8, with first wife Sadie Frost – only acknowledged two months ago that Burke was having their child.
